Richard Shelby: “It will hurt our trade overall, will it not?”

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.

A lot of people, including this Senator, believe that the request is not enough considering the problems in the world.

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.
