Elissa Slotkin Instagram – Today, in the markup of the Pentagon’s budget, @RepDonBacon (R-NE) and I introduced a bipartisan amendment to require the Air Force to pump the brakes on fighter retirement until we get a realistic plan for keeping capabilities we need, including at Selfridge Air Base.
94% of our homeland air defense and the lion’s-share of our fighting experience reside with the Air National Guard, so we believe it’s critical that the Air Force show their cards and lay out a plan before more fighters are removed from bases across the country. | Posted on 23/May/2024 02:56:29
