WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, U.S. Representative Tracey Mann (KS-01) voted yes on the Fiscal Year 2024 Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act.As part of his Commitment to the Big First, Rep. Mann is dedicated to creating a nation that’s safe.

“I support both the brave men and women who have served, and those who are currently serving, in our nation’s military,” said Rep. Mann. “America is great today because of their sacrifices. I am proud to support this legislation, which supports our national security, protects our bases, and funds benefits and health care for our nation’s heroes. It does all of this while also cutting wasteful spending that has been on the rise over the years. I commend my colleagues for passing this legislation, which serves as a perfect example of how to responsibly steward taxpayer dollars while supporting those who most deserve our respect.”

Kansas is home to 200,000 veterans. In the 117th Congress, Rep. Mann served on the House Veterans Affairs Committee and as the Republican Leader for the Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee.
