Statement

Issues: Defense Government Budget and Spending

Congressman Bruce Westerman (AR-04) issued the following statement following President Obama's veto of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for FY 2016:

"Vetoing the NDAA has put our national security at risk. President Obama's action put petty politics ahead of national defense and shows a lack of leadership," Westerman said. "Through his veto, he has sent a dangerous message to the men and women of our military, our allies around the world, and our enemies seeking to do us harm."
