“Senator Levin, I would like to take a few moments to discuss one of the concerns that has been raised relating to the compromise language on depot maintenance. In particular, I would like to ask a few questions regarding the provisions relating to core logistics capabilities and workloads. The concern has been raised that this language could require the Department to change its current depot maintenance practices and bring in-house work that is now performed by contractors. What is the view of the chairman and ranking minority member on this issue?”
