Massive defense bill sees clear path in Senate, despite transgender measure

The article from MSN discusses the progress of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) in the U.S. Senate. Despite some controversy over a provision that would limit transgender healthcare for military personnel, the bill is expected to pass with strong bipartisan support. This year's NDAA, which authorizes funding for military activities, includes a 5.2% pay raise for troops, investments in new technology, and support for Ukraine. The transgender healthcare measure, which would restrict coverage for gender-affirming care, has drawn criticism from Democrats and advocacy groups, but Senate leaders are confident that the bill will move forward, highlighting the importance of national defense over divisive social issues. The Senate is set to vote on the bill soon, with expectations that it will be reconciled with the House version in a conference committee.
