The bottom line is simple. This legislation recognizes that freedom and democracy are not mere ideals. They are principles that we will actively champion and advance. Chairman Diaz Billard's bill directs the resources to the highest impact priorities that strengthen America's position while cutting billions in unnecessary spending. This bill delivers security strategic focus and results. I thank my friend from Florida, I thank ranking member Frankel, and I thank the staff on both sides of the aisle for their hard work.
