Madeleine Bordallo: “By what percentage does the Army plan to reduce its depot maintenance workforce in FY15? What is the risk?”

I have long stated that just as important as it is to provide our service members with new, modernized equipment, we must fully maintain the assets that we already have.

The system needs, as you said, overhauling. There is no question about it, whether you go to privatization, or whatever. And it should not be a monopoly.

I am confident that there is bipartisan support among the Committee for offshore wind, which would improve self-reliance and lower electricity costs in the territories.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. You always make my day.
