Given the tremendous potential costs of a Golden Dome system, and the fallacy that it could shield the United States from a significant missile attack, the American people deserve answers.
You could say I'm surprised, but how can I be when the President himself says he doesn't ‘think about Americans’ financial situation’?
There is no reasonable justification for keeping the mission and number of interceptors for Golden Dome secret.
But the job is not done. I will continue the push to bring commonsense measures to Congress that invests in American maritime strength.
