The Coast Guard does not have the privilege of ignoring the significant and consequential impacts that climate change is having on our environment.
Being Chair of the Committee over the past four years has been the highlight of my 36-year career.
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.
We have to provide resources to the Coast Guard so they can mitigate the effects of climate change in their operational planning.
