the letter says: At the founding of our nation, then-General George Washington penned, ``When the civil and military powers cooperate, and afford mutual aid to each other there can be little doubt of things going well.'' As General Milley said, at one of the most dangerous times in recent history, it is vital that our civil and military powers cooperate. What we need to do in this body right now is get back to the important work of bolstering our economy, of fighting inflation, of bringing down energy costs, of unleashing American energy, and, most importantly, of passing the NDAA so we can bolster the national security of this great Nation in very dangerous times. I call on the majority leader, along with 20 of my colleagues and some of my Democratic colleagues, to bring the NDAA to the floor and not wait until the end of the year, which is what we hear he is planning to do. I yield the floor. The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Ossoff). The Senator from Minnesota. ____________________
