Quiver AI Summary
Representative Ilhan Omar, Chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus’s Promoting Peace & Security Taskforce, condemned the recently passed H.R. 4016, the Department of Defense Appropriations Act of 2026, which passed on a party-line vote. She described the bill as exacerbating "bloated" Pentagon spending while prioritizing military contracts and undermining access to healthcare for servicemembers.

She called for budget reforms that focus on domestic needs over military expenditures and highlighted various proposed amendments aimed at promoting peace and social justice within the Defense Department appropriations.
Among the touted amendments are provisions seeking to restrict military funding for certain operations and protect rights related to healthcare and inclusion within military ranks. Omar urged Senate Democrats to consider these changes as the bill proceeds through the legislative process.
