Washington, D.C. – Congressman Brian Babin (TX-36) released the following statement after voting in support of the Fiscal Year 2026 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA):

“Now more than ever, America’s military and defense systems must be effective, efficient, and unmatched. The 2026 NDAA bolsters funding for military activities and construction, and strengthens the Department of Energy’s critical defense operations, including nuclear security. By funding our newly renamed Department of War, we can ensure our men and women in uniform have the tools, training, and resources to fight and win,” said Rep. Brian Babin, D.D.S.

“The United States military represents the best of America, fighting for all we hold dear. Under President Trump, the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, and Space Force have already hit their recruitment goals for 2025, a testament to restored confidence in America’s military strength and mission. At this pivotal moment in our Nation’s history, the FY2026 NDAA marks a major step forward in strengthening American resolve both at home and abroad. I was proud to support it.”
