The House has voted to let the Pentagon continue using taxpayer dollars to sponsor NASCAR race teams.
McCollum said the military spends the funds to place decals on race cars and for a few driver appearances. The armed forces hope the sponsorships will help them attract recruits.
The Navy and Marine Corps dropped their NASCAR sponsorships in recent years, saying they didn't know whether they worked.
Most Democrats backed McCollum's effort, while Republicans voted overwhelmingly against it.
