Yesterday, Scott Perry voted against the annual National Defense Authorization Act, opposing significant bipartisan investments into our nation’s military such as a pay raise for service members. Their vote is a slap in the face to the men and women who put their lives on the line for our security.
No thanks to Perry, this year’s legislation:
-
Raises service member pay by 5.2%, the largest bump in 20 years.
-
Invests in child care, housing, and health care.
-
Bolsters education and child development for military families.
-
Improves readiness and spurs modernization efforts.
-
Invest in our allies and our relationships abroad.
With his vote, Perry failed service members and their families across Pennsylvania.
DCCC Spokesperson Aidan Johnson:
“Scott Perry has inexplicably turned their back on Pennnsylvania’s servicemen and women, their families, and the local economy. House Democrats once again stepped up and delivered a bipartisan defense bill while Perry opted for extremism. Voters are fed up with this disgusting brand of hyper-partisan politics, and will send Perry packing next year.”
