The non-defense funding level is an increase of only 5.5%, reducing the Administration’s wasteful non-defense budget request increase by more than half. https://t.co/FVnVnVVnxq — PolitiTweet.org

Since day one, I've insisted on increasing defense funding well above POTUS’s request without similar increases in wasteful liberal non-defense spending. I’m pleased that this package meets the level set by the NDAA last week, which is $76B over last year – an increase of 10%. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm also very pleased that veterans’ health care costs will be funded as budgeted without using accounting gimmicks designed to enable more wasteful spending. And, once again, we rejected all poison pills while preserving crucial legacy riders. https://t.co/FVnVnWcqzq — PolitiTweet.org
