NSAC Day on the Hill
Members of USGLC’s National Security Advisory Council are on Capitol Hill today to brief lawmakers and reporters on the importance of the International Affairs Budget. NSAC Co-Chairs Gen. Michael Hagee, USMC (Ret.) and Adm. James M. Loy, USCG (Ret.) will be leading the team in meeting with senior members of the Budget and Appropriations Committees in the House and Senate, and with officials at the Department of Defense, to talk about the vital roles development and diplomacy play in ensuring our national security. Earlier this month, 50 retired three- and four-star generals and flag officers signed a letter to Congress urging full support of the President’s request for the FY11 International Affairs Budget. The letter calls the International Affairs Budget “a fundamental pillar of U.S. national security and foreign policy.”
