Warren, Sheehy Blast Removal of Right to Repair from NDAA
Washington, D.C. — In response to the release of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026 (FY26 NDAA) not including bipartisan language from Senators Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Tim Sheehy’s (R-Montana) bill to give the military the right to repair their own equipment, Senators Warren and Sheehy released the following statement:
“For decades, the Pentagon has relied on a broken acquisition system that is routinely defended by career bureaucrats and corporate interests. Military right to repair reforms are supported by the Trump White House, the Secretary of War, the Secretary of the Army, the Secretary of the Navy, entrepreneurs, small businesses, and our brave servicemembers. The only ones against this common-sense reform are those taking advantage of a broken status quo at the expense of our warfighters and taxpayers.
“We support the Pentagon using the full extent of its existing authorities to insist on right to repair protections when it purchases equipment from contractors, and we will keep fighting for a common-sense, bipartisan law to address this unnecessary problem.”
