Johnson: Defense bill advances ‘Peace Through Strength Agenda’

The $901 billion NDAA plus $156 billion supplemental maintains troop levels in key regions and lifts Syria sanctions amid evolving Middle East alliances, Congress says.

  • House Speaker Mike Johnson stated that the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026 advances President Donald Trump's 'Peace Through Strength Agenda' by codifying 15 of his executive orders and enhancing national security.
  • The NDAA includes a 4% pay increase for enlisted service members and supports deployment to the U.S.-Mexico border to combat illegal immigration and drug trafficking.
  • House Armed Services Committee Chairman Mike Rogers emphasized that the NDAA reformulates the Pentagon's acquisition process to ensure troops receive necessary tools quickly.
  • The legislation cuts $20 billion in outdated weapons systems and includes funding to speed up the development of space capabilities to contain threats from China and Russia, according to Johnson's office.
