So it should be no surprise to you that the Readiness Subcommittee continues to be alarmed with the state of naval readiness in the Pacific.
Actions speak louder than words, and we must ensure that the recommendations included in these reviews are promptly considered and acted upon.
It is clear that better coordination is required by the Navy and the Marine Corps to ensure this critical warfighting and skill is restored to a readiness level.
I hope that we can continue our positive dialogue and work on a solution that supports American jobs and our readiness in the region.
