The Honorable Kay Granger

R-Texas, 12th District Chairwoman, Defense Appropriations Subcommittee

    Congresswoman Kay Granger (R-TX)

    Member of the House Committee on Appropriations, Chairwoman, Defense Appropriations Subcommittee and Member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence

    U.S. House of Representatives

    A leader in national defense and global security, Kay Granger serves and fights for the 12th congressional district of Texas. Elected to her 11th term in 2016 by an overwhelming margin, Kay has earned her reputation in Congress as a hard-working, tough and principled leader on the issues that matter most to the people she serves. Her legislative prowess and ability to get things done, widely respected by both policy makers and influencers in Washington alike, let to her recognition by CQs Roll Call as one of the Most Influential Women in Congress

    The first and only Republican woman to represent Texas in the U.S. House of Representatives, Granger currently serves as Chairwoman of the powerful Defense Appropriations Subcommittee, which handles over 50 percent of all Appropriations Committee funding. As Chairwoman, Kay is committed to rebuilding America’s military and taking care of our service members and their families. Her top priority is to address the readiness crisis in our military and revers the harmful, arbitrary budget cuts to our nation’s defense. In these dangerous times, Kay understands that for our country to be safe, we must be strong.

    Granger has received numerous honors for her leadership on national defense issues. Most recently, she accepted the 2016 Henry M. Scoop Jackson Distinguished Service Award presented by the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs for her unwavering commitment throughout her career for a robust military capability for the U.S. and its allies. Granger was also awarded the Navy Distinguished Public Service Award and the Department of the Army’s Decoration for Distinguished Civilian Service. These honors are the top recognitions given to civilians by the secretary of the Navy and secretary of the Army.

    To promote global security, Kay served as Chairwoman of the State and Foreign Operations Subcommittee. In this role, she oversaw State Department and security programs abroad where she insisted on transparency and accountability including in the probe on the attack on the America diplomatic compound in Benghazi. She has also been a champion for the Israeli missile defense systems, which help protect the State of Israel for constant threats it faces from adversaries in the region. Her staunch support of Israel and strengthening the U.S.-Israel relationship led her to be recognized for her role in helping get the 10-year, $38 billion memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the two countries completed in 2016.

    During the 2014 national security and humanitarian crisis resulting from the influx of more than 58,000 displaced children at the U.S.-Mexico border, Granger was selected to chair the task force to address the challenges created by the crisis. Granger was also the first to call for oversight hearings to respond to the Ebola outbreak in the United States and was instrumental in creating a bipartisan Congressional task force to combat the global rise of anti-Semitism.
