Working Together Our Legislators Get It Right

摘要

The Theme of the 65th Annual NDTA Forum & Expo in Phoenix September 10-14 suggests that we explore how the military, government, and industry are "Rising to the Challenge" of a changing world of politics, economics, communications, and logistics. Therefore, I thought I would focus on how our legislators are reaching out to the various stakeholders in the government and industry and working together to support our nation's critical infrastructure.It should be noted that in the view of this writer, it is important that any legislative proposal adopted should include provisions that support national defense interests and national defense programs and initiatives related to DOD highway, rail, and waterways for National Defense. I think after reading my snapshots of the various pieces of proposed legislation being put forth on Capitol Hill, you will arrive at the same conclusion I have.
