00:00
Okay, so let's switch gears to the budget. I want to take a minute from the podium today
00:06
to applaud the Senate on passing the President's one big, beautiful bill,
00:11
and I would urge the U.S. House of Representatives to do the same.
00:15
This bills necessary investments in shipbuilding, military ships, aircraft, icebreakers, unmanned
00:22
systems, artificial intelligence, $25 billion for the development of Golden Dome, all of these
00:28
things directly help achieve the President's Peace Through Strength agenda and will help equip
00:34
our warfighters to protect the homeland against 21st century's threats. This reconciliation bill
00:41
is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to revolutionize our nation's defense capabilities
00:47
by investing heavily in service member quality of life, including housing modernization,
00:54
child care, education reforms, health care improvements. I mean, all of these things are
00:59
great, and the Department is just laser-focused on getting our warfighters the funding they need
01:04
to execute their mission. Let's talk about recruiting briefly. A strong and lethal military, as many in
01:12
this room know, requires capable recruits, and we're excited to announce that the Air Force and Space
01:19
Force Force have both hit their recruiting goals three months ahead of schedule. Thanks to President
01:24
Trump and Secretary Hegseth's leadership, enthusiasm to serve is at all-time highs. Since November 5th,
01:31
2024, the U.S. military has seen the highest recruiting percentage of mission achieved in 30 years.
