Press Release

Washington, D.C. - House Appropriations Committee Chairman Tom Cole (R-OK), House Appropriations Defense Subcommittee Chairman Ken Calvert (R-CA), House Armed Services Committee Chairman Mike Rogers (R-AL), House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul (R-TX), and House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Chairman Mike Turner (R-OH) 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."
