William M. ``Mac'' Thornberry: “I only have myself to close, and I reserve the balance of my time.”

I support en bloc package No. 2, and I yield back the balance of my time.

I believe that we have to be clear-eyed about the threat that emanates from North Korea, not only against us, but our allies.

I support the National Defense Strategy. I completely agree--and I think it makes sense to put greater emphasis on great power competition.
