Richard Shelby: “The National Flood Insurance Program was established in 1968 and was designed to reduce the burden on taxpayers stemming…”

As Senator Shelby at our Senate testimony hearing last March pointed out to us, we must maintain what we have before we can build new, and I think he hits the mark head-on.

The Department of Navy has played and will continue to play a critical role in the defense of our Nation.

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

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.
