Senator Fischer questioned Commission on the National Defense Strategy (NDS) Chair Jane M. Harman and Vice Chair Eric S. Edelman on the Commission’s 2024 report, which evaluated the Biden administration’s 2022 National Defense Strategy. The report found that the federal government has not integrated national security priorities across departments, fully informed the American people about the threats we face or made sufficient progress in reforming acquisition and research practices. During the hearing, Senator Fischer referenced her provision in the Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that would require the Secretary of Defense to develop a strategy promoting a skilled manufacturing and vocational trade workforce. The provision was introduced as part of Senator Fischer’s bipartisan Restoring American Deterrence Act, a bill to overhaul America’s nuclear preparedness.
