National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2027
House Bill, H.R. 8800 (NDAA FY2027)
What it did
The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) is the annual bill that sets Pentagon policy and spending levels. Each year it carries a line for United States-Israel cooperative programs, mainly the Iron Dome, David's Sling, and Arrow missile-defense systems, and it extends the War Reserve Stockpile for Israel, the forward-positioned American arsenal that Israel draws on during wartime.
The fiscal year 2027 NDAA (H.R. 8800, sponsored by Rep. Mike Rogers (R-AL)) authorized $750,000,000 ($750M) for United States-Israel cooperative programs, a $65 million increase over the prior year, including $500 million for missile defense, and it extended the stockpile. Section 219 of the bill deepens the integration of United States and Israeli military systems; an amendment by Reps. Ro Khanna (D-CA) and Thomas Massie (R-KY) to remove that section was blocked from a floor vote. A yes vote approved the package.
A no vote rejected it.
The House passed it 216-212 on July 22, 2026, with six Democrats voting yes and seven Republicans voting no.
At the time of this vote, more than 73,231 innocent people had been confirmed murdered in Gaza (the Ministry of Health count through July 12, 2026), including more than 21,700 children by UNICEF's count.
Result: Passed 216-212
Funding: $750M
At the time of this vote: ~73,231+ innocent people murdered (~21,700+ young children murdered)
The humane vote: No (NAY)
