Support for U.S. Service Members and Families
September 12, 2025
At its core, the NDAA is the primary funding vehicle for our nation’s military. The $882.6 billion package proposed in FY26 NDAA delivers critical support to America’s service members and their families. This includes a 3.8% pay raise for service members and new benefits for military families, improvements to military food and housing programs, reforms to DoD’s acquisition process to accelerate delivery of innovative technologies, support for U.S. border security, and the extension of the Pacific Deterrence Initiative to strengthen U.S. posture in the Indo-Pacific. The NDAA now moves to the Senate for further consideration.
