Military Forces

Our military forces must be of sufficient size and adequately equipped to accomplish our objectives.

Steve Harrison opposes the Bush tax cuts, as clear and present threats to our national security and our international standing.

The Bush administration's irresponsible fiscal policy, supported by Congressman Fossella, has left us with huge debt and no funds to increase America's defense forces to the size needed for multiple theater combat.

Despite 9/11 and two interventions that stretch our military resources too thin, we are unable to expand the size of our forces, impeding us from intervening against the Darfur genocide and elsewhere.

Rogue states such as North Korea and Iran are developing weapons of mass destruction in part because they perceive our over extended military incapable of adequate response. This makes America and the world less safe.

Says Harrison, "Despite their claim to be strong on national defense, Vito Fossella and the Republicans continue to pursue policies that dramatically and demonstrably weaken us in the eyes of the world. They talk a good game but they do not produce when it counts."
