McBride Statement on USS Abraham Lincoln | 2026-08-14 | 2026 | 2026-08 | Democrat | House | DE | Sarah McBride | M001238 | mcbride.house.gov | mcbride | https://mcbride.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WILMINGTON, Del. — Today, U.S. Representative Sarah McBride (D-Del.), member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, released the following statement in response to reports of conditions aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln: “The reporting about what’s happening aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln is disturbing and underscores just how detrimental the Trump administration’s decision to go to war in Iran has been for our servicemembers and their families. “These sailors and Marines haven’t seen land in more than 200 days. They’re facing serious mental health challenges and concerning living conditions, while their families struggle to get answers to basic questions about the safety and well-being of their loved ones. And yet, Secretary Hegseth denies that anything is wrong aboard the ship. “This situation cannot continue. These conditions must be remedied immediately and there must be accountability. “You cannot play politics with the lives of our servicemembers. Yet that’s exactly what this administration has done — all while demanding a ballooned defense budget that fails to deliver for the servicemembers it is supposed to support. “The American military represents the very best of America. The men and women who serve our country deserve leadership that respects their service, safeguards their well-being, and understands the profound responsibility that comes with being commander-in-chief.” | 1 | 2026-08-16T05:26:31Z | 2026-08-16T05:27:49Z |
