Correct Action Text: 
Voted against the Gallego Amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act (H.R. 1735). The Gallego Amendment would have added a provision to the National Defense Authorization Act that would have encouraged the Secretary of Defense to waive military enlistment requirements for illegal aliens who received amnesty through Pres. Obama's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. The Gallego Amendment passed by a vote of 33-30 but was ultimately removed from the National Defense Authorization Act by the Brooks Amendment.
