Warner Robins, Ga. — U.S Senator Jon Ossoff is introducing legislation to strengthen U.S. national security by constructing new facilities at Robins Air Force Base (AFB).
This week, Sen. Ossoff introduced legislation to authorize the next steps of construction for the new Battle Management Complex at Robins AFB.
Sen. Ossoff is introducing the Robins Facilities Enhancement Act as the next step needed for construction of the new consolidated facility that will house secure communications networks and allow commanders to communicate with servicemembers in the field faster and more efficiently.
In April, Sen. Ossoff brought Republicans and Democrats together to deliver $50 million for the new Battle Management Combined Operations Complex at Robins AFB through this year’s bipartisan government funding package.
“The team protecting our nation at Robins Air Force Base needs continued support for their heroic efforts,” said Sen. Ossoff. “That is why I’m introducing this new legislation to upgrade facilities at Robins Air Force Base.”
Sen. Ossoff continues working to improve conditions and facilities for Georgia’s servicemembers.
In December, Sen. Ossoff passed into law his Robins Air Force Base Battle Management Enhancement Actthrough the FY24 National Defense Authorization Act, which authorized the first step in construction of a Battle Management Combined Operations Complex at Robins AFB.
In 2022, Sens. Ossoff and Reverend Raphael Warnock (D-GA) brought Senate Armed Services Committee Chair Jack Reed (D-RI) to Robins AFB to highlight the important role Robins AFB plays in U.S. national security.
