U.S. Representative Mike Rogers (R-AL), Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, released a statement following the House passage of H.R. 8070, the Servicemember Quality of Life Improvement and National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2025.
“There is no investment more important than the one we make in the men and women who serve in our All-Volunteer Force. We cannot kick the can down the road when it comes to providing for our servicemembers. Today, the House voted to increase pay for junior enlisted servicemembers by 19.5%, improve unaccompanied housing, expand servicemember access to childcare and healthcare, and support military spouses. Our servicemembers are the bedrock of our national security; strengthening our military starts by ensuring our servicemembers are taken care of."
“The threats facing our nation are more complex and challenging than anything we’ve encountered before. To ensure that we stay ahead of our adversaries, the FY25 NDAA keeps the continued modernization of our nuclear deterrent on track, invests in our undersea capabilities, boosts innovation, and supports the capabilities our warfighters need to succeed on any future battlefield."
“Our adversaries will only be deterred through strength and the FY25 NDAA ensures our military will continue to project that strength.”
