The Fiscal Year 2025 National Defense Authorization Act (FY25 NDAA) focuses on enhancing the quality of life for servicemembers and families by boosting compensation, improving housing, expanding medical care access, increasing childcare availability, and supporting military spouses. It emphasizes strengthening the military to deter China's aggression through modernization of the nuclear triad, enhancing Navy capabilities with new submarines, and countering espionage in the Indo-Pacific region. Various bipartisan amendments have been adopted to address force protection, research protection, and prevent funds transfer to the Taliban.
