House Republicans Propose $150 Billion Defense Spending Increase
Republicans in Congress are preparing to introduce a $150 billion defense package aimed at significantly increasing Pentagon spending and advancing President Donald Trump’s defense priorities, including the Golden Dome missile defense system. The package features funding for 14 new warships, expanded investments in missile defense systems such as THAAD, and enhancements to the U.S. military presence in the Indo-Pacific region to deter Chinese military actions. Innovation is a key focus, with billions allocated for artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, munitions production, and weapon modernization. The proposal, which aligns House and Senate Republican priorities, is intended to address both urgent military needs and long-term strategic goals, including space and nuclear capabilities. While aiming to avoid major disagreements between the two chambers, Republicans still face internal debates over Medicaid cuts, tax breaks, and how to finance the increased spending. The legislation is expected to be reviewed by key House committees in the coming weeks, with final details yet to be released.
