We meet today to examine the Coast Guard's law enforcement missions, focusing on the Service's counterdrug and migrant efforts and its work to limit illegal, unreported, and unregulated, or IUU, fishing.

Thank you for your answer. I am hoping that there is also coming with that nine necessary vessels some sort of timeline.
Given these immense resources, it should come as no surprise that adversaries, including Russia and China, are working to assert themselves in the region.
To date, we have yet to see such a plan, let alone a cost estimate or a timeline of the first vessel in the fleet.
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.
