Today, Congressman Bob Latta (OH-5) released the following statement after voting in favor of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2026 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA): 

“I am proud to support this year’s NDAA, which ensures our men and women in uniform have the tools, training, and support they need to keep America safe. It also improves servicemembers' quality of life by including an across-the-board 3.8 percent pay raise. This legislation gets America’s warriors what they need, when they need it, and delivers on President Trump's commitment to peace through strength.    

 “Importantly, the NDAA secures investments in Made in America military equipment, strengthens our national defense industrial base, and prioritizes American workers over foreign adversaries. Congress has no greater responsibility than to support our troops and safeguard the American people. With this NDAA, we are making sure our servicemembers are fully equipped to defend the United States and uphold the safety and security of our great country.”
