Shays Statement on DoD’s
BRAC Recommendation
Bridgeport, CT - This morning, the Department
of Defense (DoD) released its BRAC closing recommendations,
which included the Submarine Base in New London. Over the
next four months the BRAC Commission will examine DoD's recommendation
and will likely make some changes. The President will also
have the opportunity to review it and make suggestions, and
ultimately Congress may consider a resolution of disapproval.
The following is Congressman Christopher Shays’ (R-CT)
statement:
“The Delegation will continue to work overtime to persuade
the BRAC Commission and the President that the Submarine Base
in New London is a valuable resource for our state and nation.”
