WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman Brad Finstad (MN-01) released the following statement following the House Armed Services Committee markup and full committee passage of historic legislation that will invest $150 billion in revitalizing and modernizing our Armed Forces:
“Under the previous administration, our nation faced increasing threats both at home and abroad, while defense spending failed to keep pace with inflation,” said Rep. Finstad. “This legislation is a step towards achieving President Trump’s vision of peace through strength by making critical investments that restore our military, ensuring it remains the best fighting force in the world. By strengthening our defense industrial base, improving the quality of life for our service members, securing our borders, and increasing innovation we will ensure that our Armed Forces have the resources they need to protect our nation amidst a growing threat environment.”
