Rep. Mann Votes to Support Service Members, Counter China, Hold President Biden Accountable in NDAA

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, U.S. Representative Tracey Mann (KS-01) released the following statement after voting yes on H.R. 2670, the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2024.The annual funding bill provides critical resources for national defense, military readiness, and support for the nation’s service members.

"Today, I voted to support America’s defense and to deliver on my commitment to safeguard our nation,” said Rep. Mann. "The National Defense Authorization Act sends a clear message that we stand with our troops, that President Biden’s Department of Defense cannot use taxpayer dollars to fund abortions, that we will not bow to the Chinese Communist Party, and that the more than 8,000 service members who were discharged for not receiving the COVID-19 vaccine deserve a path back to military service. I supported and voted for all amendments which would have restricted unconditional funding to Ukraine and increased oversight of dollars already spent there. I am proud to work to bolster America’s military readiness and ensure that the brave men and women who serve our country are taken care of.”

H.R. 2670 passed in the U.S. House of Representatives with a 219 - 210 vote. It will be sent to the U.S. Senate for further consideration.
