Hegseth to Brief GOP on $350B Defense Push | US News
Description
Pete Hegseth is set to brief House Republicans on a staggering $350 billion defense funding request, framed as essential to modernize and strengthen the world’s most powerful military — with much of the plan shrouded in secrecy. As Republicans push a reconciliation bill to fast-track GOP priorities, including election reforms and fraud crackdowns, the defense package also includes $67 billion for the Iran conflict, plus funds for Ebola response and agricultural aid. The proposal spans everything from fuel and munitions to cutting-edge tech, drones, cybersecurity, and National Guard support — all aimed at transforming military readiness in a volatile global landscape.
