Womack Backs House Passage of FY23 NDAA
Washington,
July 15, 2022
Washington, DC—July 15, 2022….Congressman Steve Womack (AR-3) this week voted to pass the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2023. The legislation authorizes $850 billion for national security activities, including resources to equip our troops, support military families, enhance defense capabilities, strengthen military readiness, and deter foreign adversaries. Congressman Womack said, “Providing for the common defense is a constitutional imperative. Advancing the FY23 NDAA is fundamental to upholding that obligation, and this bill ensures our military is properly manned, trained, and equipped. Every advantage we give our troops makes certain they never have a fair fight when defending freedom. That readiness should always be our priority.” The legislation will advance to the Senate before a conference committee to reconcile the differences between the House and Senate versions will be established. Congressman Steve Womack (AR-3) has represented Arkansas’s Third Congressional District since 2011. He is a member of the House Appropriations Committee. ### |
