Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
I rise today to offer H.R. 4016, the Fiscal Year 2026 Department of Defense Appropriations Act. I want to start by thanking Chairman Cole for his leadership in this process. I also thank the Defense subcommittee ranking member, Ms. McCollum, for her partnership and friendship. Finally, I thank the defense subcommittee staff for their tireless work on this year’s bill.
H.R. 4016 provides $831.5 billion for the Department of Defense and the Intelligence Community. While this is flat relative to discretionary funds enacted in fiscal year 2025, coupled with the recently enacted reconciliation act, it provides nearly $1 trillion to modernize and sustain our armed forces.
