House Armed Services Committee Chairman Mike Rogers (R-AL) released the following statement on President Trump’s State of the Union address:

As President Trump made clear tonight, America is safer because of the work he has done to strengthen our national defense and modernize our military. As the threats from our adversaries continue to evolve and intensify, it’s never been more important to fulfill his vision of Peace through Strength. I look forward to working with him to meet his goal of increasing defense spending to $1.5 trillion. Americans can rest easier knowing that the state of our union is strong with President Trump in charge. It has never been more obvious that he cares about everyday Americans, and he cares about making our nation strong. The President is ready to make America even greater, and I am ready to help him!
