A stalled U.S. House defense spending bill would allocate over $800 million to North Carolina and include 5%–7% military pay raises.
The U.S. House has authorized $1.15 trillion in national defense discretionary spending in a bill that is currently stalled. The measure would direct more than $800 million to North Carolina, including funding for Marine bases and the Army's Fort Bragg, and would provide 5% to 7% pay raises for service members.
