The U.S. Indo-Pacific Command has submitted a wish list to Congress requesting $11 billion more than the White House’s fiscal 2025 defense budget proposal, with a focus on constructing infrastructure, classified space programs, munitions, and Guam defenses to bolster its presence in the region and deter China.

The command's wish list aims to bridge the funding gap reported in its annual assessment to Congress and comes amid ongoing budget negotiations and discussions in Congress.
