"Having worked on this bill all year, this bill meets the critical needs of the federal government and the American people as we confront the most serious challenges facing our nation, both at home and abroad," Chair McCollum said. "Keeping families, communities, and our country safe, healthy, strong, and prosperous is the focus of this bill.

"With regard to national security, my colleagues and I invested in our most important security asset – our service members and their families. At a time when Americans are struggling with higher prices, this bill includes a 4.6% pay raise and an 11% increase in housing and food allowances to help offset rising prices for military families. My defense bill also tackles the climate crises head on, by investing more than $2 billion in clean energy programs and climate adaptation to protect facilities, readiness, and global security. We invest over $39 billion in defense health and medical research programs, including more than $582 million for cancer research. This funding will save lives and make America healthier.

"My commitment to investing in innovation and the jobs of the future is a major focus of the bill. Included in the bill is $300 million for bioindustrial facilities to help spur the biomanufacturing economy that will develop the products of the future and establish domestic supply chains.

"Finally, the agreement provides additional military and humanitarian assistance for the Ukrainian people in their fight to defend their democracy against Russian aggression.

"I am proud to support the men and women of the Armed Forces, as well as the millions of civilians who support our nation in public service and the industrial base. This bill will keep our nation strong."
