Using a 'bundle' (en bloc) vote allows Congress to quickly approve many non-controversial or bipartisan updates to the military's budget and operations without debating every single minor change individually.
This primarily affects the Department of Defense, military personnel, and defense contractors who must follow the specific policy updates included in the bundle.
