Excellent from @MacThornberry writing at @BreakingDefense: "Buy America Doesn’t Work; We Need Allies"

@MacTXPress’s final op-ed as a Member of Congress and leader of the House Armed services Committee. It was an honor to work for such a thoughtful leader on defense.

LR @RepMcCaul thanks @MacThornberry for his service on @HASCRepublicans & work on national security issues, including the #NDAA: "As an NDAA conferee, I’m proud this year’s bill includes provisions that support Israel & deepen our partnership."

ICYMI: House Armed Services Committee leader @MacTXPress discusses the rhetoric in Washington and how political brinkmanship can weaken our national defense - https://t.co/4DybW4Uh0X @HASCRepublicans

It has been an honor to advocate for our country’s airmen throughout my time in office, and it is their courage and dedication that has kept me going all these years.

This morning, Sally and I met with Secretary Barbara Barrett, Chief of Staff Charles Brown, and Space Force Chief of Operations John Raymond. Each of these individuals embody the best characteristics of our armed forces, and our nation is better for their service.

HASC Ranking Member @MacTXPress congratulates incoming Ranking Member @RepMikeRogersAL :

Chairman @RepAdamSmith and Ranking Member @MacTXPress today issued a joint statement regarding the FY21 National Defense Authorization Act. Read their full statement here: https://t.co/PbudDUwe26

. @mactxpress on the FY21 NDAA: " The purpose of the bill has always been to support our troops and to protect American national security... This year’s bill passed the House by a vote of 295 to 125 ..The conference agreement is an even stronger bill... and should be supported."

Last month @mactxpress sat down with @JenGriffinFNC for a wide-ranging interview on the national security challenges facing the country: https://t.co/NX5blR1658

Mac Thornberry is leaving Congress after 26 years ... he reflects on his greatest achievement: rebuilding military readiness so aviators no longer have to cannibalize warplanes.

Thank you, Ranking Member Thornberry of the House Armed Services Committee, for joining @Heritage today for our launch of the 2021 Index of U.S. Military Strength and for your Top 10 priorities list to improve America’s defenses! @MacTXPress https://t.co/RmcCuo8CYU

"As long as there are threats to Americans and American national security in the world, the U.S. must be vigilant, strong, and engaged in order to safeguard our people and fulfill our duty under the Constitution." 2/2 https://t.co/mLiIZD4H39

"I believe that these additional reductions of American troops from terrorist areas are a mistake. Further reductions in Afghanistan will also undercut negotiations there; the Taliban has done nothing – met no condition – that would justify this cut." @mactxpress 1/2

Thanks @AICGS for convening this important bipartisan conversation about the need to rebuild the transatlantic alliance structure.

This was a really great conversation among @ChrisMurphyCT @MacTXPress and @ischinger on the challenges and opportunities for the German-American and transatlantic partnership. Video up soon, for those who couldn't join us! @AICGS @MunSecConf
