Rep. Fitzgerald Votes to Support Veterans, Military Families, and Strengthen Military Readiness
WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman Scott Fitzgerald (WI-05) issued the following statement after voting to pass H.R. 8469, the Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2027.
“America’s veterans and servicemembers deserve a system that delivers timely, high-quality care and strong benefits they have earned through their service to our nation. This legislation fully funds critical VA health care and benefits programs, expands support for mental health services, and continues strengthening the infrastructure veterans rely on every day.
“This bill also recognizes the needs of military families by investing in improved housing and childcare facilities that directly affect daily quality of life. At the same time, it strengthens military readiness by funding key construction projects to ensure our forces remain equipped and prepared as we navigate global threats.
“I was proud to support this measure because it reflects House Republicans’ deep commitment to those who selflessly serve our nation. The long-term strength of our military community is critical to the success of the United States.”
