Womack Statement on NDAA Veto

Congressman Steve Womack (AR-3) today released the following statement after President Obama issued a veto of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016:

“Holding our national security hostage for pet social programs is not only shortsighted but also a clear threat to our nation and our soldiers abroad.  We cannot truly protect ourselves in an increasingly unstable world when we have a Commander in Chief who would put lives at risk for his own liberal agenda.” 


Congressman Steve Womack has represented Arkansas’s Third Congressional District since 2011 and serves on the House Appropriations Defense, Financial Services and General Government, and Labor-Health and Human Services subcommittees and the House Committee on the Budget.
