Eric Sorensen: “Today, extremists have put our national security at risk with this…”

On the recordJuly 13, 2023

Today, extremists have put our national security at risk with this partisan National Defense Authorization Act. I was pleased to work across the aisle with Congressman LaHood to try to save the 182nd Airlift Wing in Peoria, Illinois. We should be focused on these bipartisan issues, not the extremists who have added amendments that have nothing to do with national defense and security, including the extreme restriction on abortion access, which threatens women servicemembers' ability to make their own healthcare decisions. We need a clean and bipartisan NDAA.
