House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) issued the following statement today praising House passage of the FY 2014 National Defense Authorization Act: “The bipartisan bill passed by the House today provides our troops with the tools, resources, and authorities they need to keep America safe. I am pleased that the bill also includes more than 30 provisions or reforms to the Uniform Code of Military Justice to help combat sexual assaults in the military. Let me thank Chairman McKeon and all the members of the committee for their work year-round to ensure that we honor our commitments to America’s servicemembers and their families.” NOTE: Additional information on the FY 2014 National Defense Authorization Act is available here on the House Armed Services Committee website.
