I look forward to hearing what the Coast Guard is doing to ensure its members... have the buildings, facilities, and IT support they need and deserve.

Members of the DOGE team are being vetted to ensure qualifications are met and then monitored by Treasury officials throughout their work.

I expect you and Admiral Allan to clearly articulate how you will acquire these vessels and what resources are required to carry out the Coast Guard's polar mission.
