WASHINGTON — The FY26 National Defense Authorization Act helps the United States confront international challenges to our core interests by enacting President Trump and House Republicans’ Peace Through Strength Agenda.
President Trump and House Republicans’ Peace Through Strength Agenda in the NDAA:
The FY26 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) strengthens America’s defenses and advances President Trump’s ‘Peace Through Strength’ agenda — codifying his executive orders, ending woke ideology at the Pentagon, securing the border, revitalizing the defense industrial base, and restoring the warrior ethos.
- Secures the border: Deploys the National Guard, expands counter-narcotics missions, and boosts DOD support to DHS.
- Improves family life: 3.8% pay raise, better housing, stronger healthcare, and expanded childcare.
- Modernizes defense: Accelerates new weapons, AI, drones, missile defense, and nuclear deterrence.
- Strengthens deterrence: Fully funds nuclear modernization and space capabilities to outpace China and Russia.
- Ends wokeism: Eliminates DEI and CRT programs, restores merit-based promotions, and bans race-based admissions at service academies.
Building the Most Modern and Lethal Fighting Force in the World:
The FY26 NDAA equips America’s military with the strength to deter any adversary:
- Ships: New submarines, destroyers, and a Ford-class aircraft carrier.
- Aircraft: Dozens of new F-35’s and F-15EX’s, plus next-gen F-47 and F/A-XX programs.
- Munitions: $15B for missiles, rockets, and artillery to rebuild the arsenal.
- Technology: $142B for hypersonics, AI, drones, quantum computing, and space systems.
Building on the Working Families Tax Cut:
Earlier this year, President Trump signed into law the Working Families Tax Cut — the most pro-worker, pro-family economic package in decades. On top of tax relief and lower prices, it also delivered historic investments to strengthen America’s defenses:
- $150B for military modernization.
- $100B for border security, detention, deportations, and 10,000 new ICE agents.
- Major surge in U.S. defense production to rebuild the industrial base and onshore supply chains.
The FY26 NDAA builds on this foundation ensuring America has both the economic strength and the military power to deter our enemies and protect our interests worldwide.
The Bottom Line:
China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea are testing America’s resolve. Under President Trump, the U.S. is rebuilding strength, restoring deterrence, and proving America will not back down.
The FY26 NDAA ensures our forces can deter any adversary and keeps the U.S. military the most capable in the world.
President Trump and House Republicans promised peace through strength. The FY26 NDAA delivers it.
