"Secretary Carter, aside from sequestration, why does DOD continue to assert a mandate for defense accounts in the BCA?"

"DOD has been unfortunately dealing with CRs for many years because Congress can't seem to pass a budget."

"this administration has not given the priorities to the military"

"I know you did, and we did, too. I've talked to him about this and we know that the assets just weren't available when you look at the other places."
