Moolenaar Votes to Protect the American People and Support Servicemembers

Today, Congressman John Moolenaar voted for the 2025 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which passed the House of Representatives. This legislation authorizes policies and programs for the Department of Defense in 2025 and includes a 19.5% pay increase for junior enlisted servicemembers.

“The 2025 NDAA is a victory for the American people and our courageous servicemembers. It’s also bad news for the Chinese Communist Party. I’m proud that the House has taken decisive action to enhance the Department of Defense’s ability to identify Chinese companies working on behalf of the Chinese military, prevent future Chinese drones from dominating our air space, and advance American research security, among many other accomplishments. I look forward to working with my colleagues in the Senate on this important legislation that will keep our country safe and make sure the United States is able to deter the mounting threats from Xi Jinping,” said Moolenaar. 

Included in the legislation are provisions to improves benefit for servicemembers and their families. The legislation also deters CCP aggression and works to prevent espionage efforts in our military and research institutions.
