The House easily approved a much-anticipated compromise version of the Water Resources Development Act (WRDA) of 2022 as part of a major defense bill. By a vote of 350 to 80, the 2023 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) was sent to the Senate for final congressional approval. In addition to WRDA, the NDAA also included reauthorization of the Coast Guard and the Maritime Administration. Rep. Peter DeFazio (D-Ore.), the chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee who is ending his lengthy congressional career, spoke on the House floor of WRDA's significance. |
