The US House of Representatives approved the $900 billion National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), a critical defense policy bill that includes an $8 billion increase over the president's budget request and a 3.8% pay raise for service members.Supported by House Speaker Mike Johnson, the legislation incorporates numerous executive orders from Donald Trump and allocates $400 million in military aid for Ukraine, while also addressing controversial social policies.The measure, which also aims to force the release of a video related to a controversial military strike, now awaits expected approval by the Senate and a signature from Trump to become law.
