Richard Shelby: “Do you believe that rather than saving lives, the President's executive actions could result in more lives lost through…”

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.

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.

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

A complex and evolving security environment requires a serious commitment to our national defense.
