It's pretty hard to enable our people to do the jobs that they signed up for if we continue to rely on short-term CRs and we do not get rid of sequester, because those all impact readiness and modernization, all of those connected areas.
Hirono emphasizes the negative impact of short-term funding on military readiness.

So can somebody respond to me, do you have something in writing that says here are all the different things that we're going to need to do to mitigate what happens in a disaster so that you can continue to provide services to the Veterans?
As far as I'm concerned, we did not do that adequately during the Kavanaugh hearings.
Providing long-term homes, including, of course, for the Veterans in those communities remain a huge priority.
