House Passes 2027 NDAA With Expanded U.S.-Israel Military Cooperation

The House passed its 2027 defense authorization bill with a provision expanding U.S.-Israel defense cooperation. Ro Khanna joined Thomas Massie in trying to remove the provision. Left-leaning outlets stress calls for Senate rejection and Khanna’s effort to keep seeking removal. Center outlets present the opposition as a push to remove the provision as the bill moves to the Senate, giving critics more direct quotations than supporters. Right-leaning outlets frame expanded cooperation as a risk to U.S. sovereignty and security.
