The House of Representatives voted to pass its yearly defense bill, the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), allocating $895.2 billion towards defense and national security. The bill, totaling 1,800 pages, was approved by a vote of 281-140, with bipartisan support but some dissent from both Republicans and Democrats.
The NDAA now moves to the Senate for approval before reaching President Biden's desk for his signature. This significant allocation adds approximately $1 trillion to the already staggering $36 trillion national debt, which continues to grow rapidly.
