BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. MOYLAN. Mr. Chairman, I rise today in strong support of the Fiscal Year 2027 National Defense Authorization Act.

Guam is on the front line of America's national security in the Pacific. This bill delivers nearly $1.9 billion in vital defense investments on the island while ensuring the people of Guam remain a priority.

This legislation secures an extension to the H-2B workforce provision through 2035 to guarantee long-term stability for our local economy.

It sets a target for military commissaries to source at least 15 percent of produce from local farmers, expanded workforce credentialing for our students, and protected local land by removing a proposed military acquisition of over 100 acres.

Guam has carried a tremendous share of our Nation's defense responsibilities for generations.

As the people of Guam continue to serve this country, the passage of this NDAA will, in turn, serve our island.

Mr. Chairman, I urge our colleagues to support the passage of this bipartisan bill.
