National Defense:
General Arnold Punaro wrote an article stating, “Among the first few phrases in the Preamble to the U.S. Constitution is, notably, to ‘provide for the common defense.’ For nearly 250 years, the men and women of the U.S. military and intelligence communities have done a remarkable job doing exactly that.
But today, as the nation faces an unstable and threat-filled global landscape, debate in Congress on funding levels, policies, and posture at the Defense Department and partisan arguments about America’s priorities put at risk the U.S. military’s ability to do what it has successfully done for more than two centuries.”
