美国众议院以216票对212票的微弱多数通过了年度国防政策法案[1][2]。这项投票呈现罕见的党派分化，反映了围绕国防支出和特朗普政府议程的深刻分歧[1]。
该法案纳入了特朗普政府要求的1.15万亿美元国家安全支出预算[1][2]，其中包括军人5%-7%的加薪，具体幅度根据军衔而定[1]。根据一项来源统计，国防及相关支出总体接近1.6万亿美元，包括伊朗战争和武器储备等项目[1]。
法案的一项重要条款是将国防部更名为战争部[1]。国会预算办公室估计，这一更名将耗资127亿美元[1]。此外，法案还包含禁止TRICARE军方医疗项目提供性别相关医疗护理的内容[1]。
民主党对该法案的支出规模提出质疑。众议院民主党人、武装部队委员会排名委员亚当·史密斯表示："美国人民在努力支付账单，我们却要投入1.6万亿美元到国防预算中。这不是合理的要求。"[1]民主党以特朗普未经国会批准加入以色列攻击伊朗以及其推行全国范围投票限制的议程为由拒绝支持该法案[2]。
该法案现已提交参议院审议[2]。
The House of Representatives passed the annual defense policy legislation by a narrow vote of 216 to 212, marking a rare partisan divide on what is typically a more bipartisan measure. [1][2] The bill incorporates $1.15 trillion in national security spending as requested by the Trump administration [1][2] and includes a provision to rename the Department of Defense to the Department of War. [1]
The legislation provides military personnel with pay raises ranging from 5 to 7 percent depending on rank. [1] It also contains a provision prohibiting gender-related medical care within TRICARE, the military health care program. [1] The Congressional Budget Office estimates the renaming will cost $127 million. [1]
Democrats opposed the measure citing concerns about overall defense spending priorities. Representative Adam Smith, the top Democrat on the relevant committee, stated: "The American people are struggling to pay their bills, and we're going to put $1.6 trillion into the defense budget. That's not a reasonable ask." [1] The broader defense-related expenditures approach $1.6 trillion when including funding for Iran-related military operations and weapons reserves. [1]
The narrow passage reflects significant partisan disagreement. Six Democrats did not oppose the bill while seven Republicans voted against it. [2] The Trump administration has indicated plans to allocate $1.5 trillion toward military spending in fiscal year 2027. [2] The legislation now moves to the Senate for consideration. [2]
