Political Quotes

“I am grateful that the House Armed Services Committee included my amendment, the Small Manufacturer Cybersecurity Enhancement Act, in the National Defense Authorization Act, which passed yesterday by bipartisan vote. This crucial amendment will provide much-needed assistance to small defense manufacturers with cyber compliance, and it will enhance the cybersecurity through our defense supply chain by expanding DOD cyber initiatives with the manufacturing extension partnership centers. The MEP national network is ideally situated to assist the Department to help strengthen our national defense. This bipartisan legislation was supported unanimously by all members of the House Armed Services Committee. It is especially important to the communities I represent adjacent to the Army Cyber Command at Fort Gordon. The potential to create jobs is encouraged. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. ____________________”
