The Senate passed a $886 billion defense bill that steers clear of abortion and transgender service issues but acknowledges GOP concerns about progressive influence in the Pentagon.
According to a Senate Armed Services Committee (SASC) aide, top negotiators for the NDAA include Wicker, SASC Chairman Sen. Jack Reed, D-R.I., House Committee on Armed Services (HASC) Chairman Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Ala., and SASC ranking member Rep. Adam Smith, D-Wash. Jamie Joseph is a writer who covers politics. She leads Fox News Digital coverage of the Senate.
In a statement provided to Fox News Digital, which was first reported by Punchbowl, Wicker said Monday, "There are a number of things that need to be fixed" in the NDAA.
