U.S. Representatives Mike Turner (OH-10), Chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, Mike Rogers (AL-03), Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, Michael McCaul (TX-10), Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, Tom Cole (OK-04), Chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, Ken Calvert (CA-41), Chairman of the House Appropriations Committee’s Subcommittee on Defense, and and Mario Díaz-Balart (FL-26), Chairman of the House Appropriations Committee’s Subcommittee on State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs, released a statement in support of Speaker Johnson’s plan to pass the full national security supplemental:
“There is nothing our adversaries would love more than if Congress were to fail to pass critical national security aid. Speaker Johnson has produced a plan that will boost U.S. national security interests in Europe, the Middle East, and the Indo-Pacific.
“We don’t have time to spare when it comes to our national security. We need to pass this aid package this week.”
