Mr. Speaker, yesterday, House Budget Chairman Paul Ryan unveiled his vision of a budget, which will reduce Washington's out-of-control spending and will put our country back on a path to prosperity. For years, the President has targeted our military in order to support his Big Government agenda. Last month, the administration announced plans to reduce the size of our Armed Forces to levels of those prior to World War II, putting American families at risk. Chairman Ryan recognizes that our brave men and women in uniform, military families, and veterans are the ones who dedicate their lives to keeping us safe. His budget proposes to strengthen national security. The primary function of the national government is to maintain a strong national defense. I appreciate Chairman Paul Ryan for committing to ensuring the safety of every American at home and abroad. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. ____________________
