WASHINGTON, D.C. - Following the U.S. House of Representatives passing the Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2027, Representative John McGuire issued the following statement.
"We would not have a country without our brave men and women in uniform," said Rep. John McGuire (VA-05). "The Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2027 ensures our military is resilient and its servicemembers have the resources they needed to remain strong and healthy. As a Navy SEAL veteran, I know firsthand how important this is. By funding veterans' health care programs, prioritizing research for mental health programs, and giving the military the money it needs to protect our country, we are proving a commitment to the America-First agenda. Our military, it's heroes, and their families will remain a priority."
