 Rep. Mike Johnson (LA-04) has been advocating for funding for both Fort Polk and Barksdale Air Force Base while in Congress. Today, the Army awarded a contract to Cubic Global Defense, Incorporated for the United States Army Forces Command that provides mission support services at the Joint Readiness Training Center at Fort Polk. The amount of this action is $42,325,842.30.

Rep. Mike Johnson released the following statement:

"Louisiana’s Fourth District is home to two of our nation’s leading military installations. Both Fort Polk and Barksdale Air Force Base are critical to our military’s core mission, and I have continually promoted their importance in Washington. I am excited to see this investment coming back to our district and our state, especially as Fort Polk continues to demonstrate its value to our military. Fort Polk equips our men and women in uniform to not only fight, but to win. I am confident this contract will enhance those efforts.”
