“Vote no on this amendment. We need enough people in the Department of Defense to keep our military ready and defend the country.”
“Mr. Chair, let’s get to the bottom line here. Our responsibility as Members of Congress is to make sure that we have a Department of Defense that is ready. We can’t do it with less people. We are losing this institutional knowledge that is so critical for defending our Nation. Mr. Chair, I am against this. Please reject this amendment.”
