Peter DeFazio: “I associate myself with the chairman's remarks about the President's budget as it relates to the Coast Guard.”

I just really think, even when we finally get to three functional, modern, major icebreakers, I mean, you still have the Antarctic mission and other things.

The Coast Guard does not have the privilege of ignoring the significant and consequential impacts that climate change is having on our environment.
