This book was released on 2014-09-05 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sequestration is arbitrary and irrational. While we will learn more today about its impacts on our national defense, with sequestration, as with Continuing Resolutions (CR), government shutdowns, and the recurring looming threat of a default on the Nation's debt, we not only fail to sustain our national security, but also fail to meet our shared obligation to protect and promote public safety, health, transportation, education, and the environment. When we allow this to happen, we put at risk much of what we do and stand for as a Nation and we undermine our position in the world. Throughout the 2 years since the enactment of the Budget Control Act (BCA) and its provisions for sequestration, our military leaders have been warning us of its harmful consequences. If sequestration continues, the Services will have to cut Active and Reserve component end strength, reduce force structure, defer repair of equipment, delay or cancel modernization programs, and allow training levels to seriously decline, which will reduce our ability to respond to global crises, thereby increasing our Nation's strategic risk.

This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The presence of a technologically superior defense industrial base has been a foundation of U.S. strategy since 1945. While the implementation of the budget cuts in the Budget Control Act of 2011 has caused concerns for the industrial base, the resulting debate has been lacking in empirical analysis. The purpose of this research is to measure the impact of the current defense drawdown across all the tiers of the industrial base. This report analyzes prime and subprime Defense Department contract data to measures the impacts of the drawdown by sector to better understand how prime and subprime contractors have responded to this external market shock.

This book was released on 2016-10-24 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite an accumulating array of complex threats to our national interests, we are on track now to cut $1 trillion from America's defense budget by the year 2021. The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), has taken over a swath of territory the size of Indiana in the Middle East. We are now on track to having nearly 3,000 U.S. troops back in Iraq, and we are flying hundreds of airstrikes a month against ISIS in Iraq and Syria. China has increased its aggressive challenge to America and our allies in the Asia-Pacific region where geopolitical tensions and the potential for miscalculations are high. While the Ryan-Murray budget agreement of 2013 provided some relief from the mindlessness of sequestration, that relief did little to provide the kind of fiscal certainty that our military needs to plan for the future and make longer-term investments for the national defense. If we continue with these arbitrary defense cuts, we will harm our military's ability to keep us safe. Our Army and Marine Corps will be too small. Our Air Force will have too few aircraft, and many of those will be too old. Our Navy will have too few ships. Our soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines will not get the training or equipment they need. It will become increasingly difficult for them to respond to any of a number of contingencies that could threaten our national interests around the world.

Download or read book Sequestration written by United States Government Accountability Office and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-10-05 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In March 2013, the President ordered across-the-board spending reductions, known as sequestration, for all federal agencies and departments. As a result, DOD's discretionary resources were reduced by about $37.2 billion over the remainder of FY 2013. The joint explanatory statement accompanying the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 included a provision for GAO to review DOD's implementation and effects of the FY 2013 sequestration. This report examines, for the FY 2013 sequestration, (1) how DOD allocated reductions, (2) what effects DOD has identified on selected DOD programs, services, and military readiness, and (3) the extent to which DOD took actions to mitigate the effects of sequestration. GAO analyzed DOD's FY 2013 budget and execution data and reviewed a nongeneralizeable sample of five types of expenses or investments-such as maintenance, and a selection of weapon systems and military construction projects-based on the magnitude of reductions and possible relation to readiness. For each area, GAO reviewed data on planned versus actual spending and reports on actions taken and interviewed DOD and service officials.
