Occurrences
Congressman Rich McCormick ... released a statement applauding the passage of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026 ... H.R. 3838 will authorize $882.6 billion for America's national defense and includes more than 40 provisions authored by Congressman McCormick
Evidence
On June 5, 2026, the House Armed Services Committee passed the chairman's mark of H.R. 8800, the FY27 NDAA, by a 44-12 vote. The committee said the bill strengthens deterrence and gives servicemembers the support they need.
McCormick's official House page lists him on the House Armed Services Committee and on the Tactical Air and Land Forces and Cyber, Information Technologies, and Innovation subcommittees.
Assessments
McCormick is serving in the relevant federal term and sits on the House Armed Services Committee and its defense subcommittees, which positions him to help shape the annual NDAA. The evidence shows committee-stage progress on FY27 NDAA during his term, but there is no proof he personally authored, sponsored, or secured final enactment of a specific NDAA outcome tied to this promise. That supports partial credit rather than full delivery.
