I welcome the news that the negotiation for the sale of F-16 aircraft to the United Arab Emirates has been successfully concluded.
This sale is also important for the viability of our defense industrial base and will benefit American workers.
I'll insist that they get the job done.
If they decide it's about who can offer the most immediate, short-term gratification, we'll be in trouble.
