Call on Congress to have your back! Ask legislators to stand up for military family quality-of-life priorities in defense legislation under consideration.

When military families are secure at home, our entire nation is more resilient and better protected. Join the National Military Family Association (NMFA) and others from across America to call on Congress to honor the extraordinary sacrifices military families make every day! 

The Congress is currently considering annual defense spending legislation, the National Defense Authorization Act. Earlier this year, the House of Representatives passed their version of the legislation, incorporating numerous recommendations from the bipartisan Quality of Life Panel, a new initiative to address key issues impacting service members and their families.   

Several key priorities were included in the recently introduced bill:  

  • Increased compensation for all servicemembers, with the largest for junior enlisted members

  • Expanded eligibility for the Basic Needs Allowance  

  • Improving the availability of affordable and reliable childcare  

  • Improved support for military spouses seeking employment

By asking your Congressmembers to support the quality-of-life policies included in the recently introduced legislation, you’ll join advocates from across the country in supporting the issues that matter most to military families.   

NMFA has thanked Congressional leaders for including these priorities in the defense package, urging legislators to maintain these provisions in the final bill — Use Quorum, our convenient and secure grassroots advocacy tool to join us and message Congress today!

Quorum will not use your information for any other purposes and will not contact you.
