Richard Shelby: “I look forward to working with this subcommittee and the rest of the Congress to achieve these important goals.”

I am concerned about this--what this communicates to both our allies and our adversaries.

We have got to get our arms, one, around the inflation first, and then try to boost our defense capabilities in a dangerous world.

I am deeply concerned, however, that the administration's failure to direct the appropriate resources to the crisis at the southern border has resulted in shifting the burden to the Guard.

Deterrence requires spending our limited resources on both offensive and defensive weapons.
