Talking Points for June Drill
Please see the EANGUS National Office overview by clicking here.
Amendments to legislation considered before the U.S. Senate are kept close hold until the Senate is prepared to debate. However, the EANGUS National Office understands that Senator John McCain, Chairman of SASC, plans to debate an amendment which would increase funding to DOD by $17 Billion. The amendment, if adopted, would match the overall funding level in H.R. 4909, the House-passed FY17 NDAA. Senator Ted Cruz of Texas is reportedly considering an amendment to mirror Section 624 of H.R. 4909 related to SBP-IDT. If adopted, these amendments would solidify their position in conference between the House and Senate. House and Senate conferees cannot remove identical language adopted by both chambers.
