Pete Hegseth: 我认为特朗普总统有权联邦化国民警卫队,因为加州州长未能有效控制非法移民问题。我认为,数百万非法移民涌入,挥舞外国国旗,并袭击执法人员,这已经构成了外国入侵和对政府的叛乱。我坚信特朗普总统有权采取行动,保护我们的国家和人民。我们国防部已经增加了13%的预算,完全有能力应对包括维护主要城市治安在内的突发事件,所有地面部队都接受过充分的训练,能够胜任他们的任务。 Congresswoman DeLauro: 我对国防部的预算计划表示担忧,因为我们没有看到任何具体的计划或数字。我认为,在预算听证会上,提供详细的预算计划是至关重要的。我希望能够以书面形式获得国防部的未来计划,包括具体的数字和百分比,以便我们能够做出明智的决定。 Congresswoman McCollum: 我对国防部未能提供关于国民警卫队部署的预算细节感到不满。我认为,如果国防部不提供相关数据,那么这次预算委员会会议就毫无意义。我需要知道资金来自何处,以及哪些训练任务受到了影响。如果国防部不回答这些预算问题,我将收回我的时间。
