Governor Schwarzenegger and California's Delegation Send Letter on Base Realignment and Closure
Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger today wrote to President George W. Bush, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and Base Realignment and Closure Commission Chairman Anthony Principi expressing California's commitment to our nation's military and the state's unique ability to support the present and future needs of our national defense. The letter was cosigned by California's entire 55-member Congressional delegation in an important demonstration of bipartisanship and unity of purpose.
"We are committed to support America's military, and believe California provides that support, across the board, better than any other state," the Governor and Members of Congress write in the letter. "To help show this, we have attached the recent report of the California Council on Base Support and Retention, a comprehensive review of the state's vital role in national defense. It provides clear examples of the interconnectedness that makes California so uniquely important to our national security."
