“Investments in DOD infrastructure, military readiness, and support for our servicemembers are all crucial to bolstering our national security,” said Hirono. “This year’s NDAA makes those critical investments, including funding to facilitate the permanent closure of Red Hill, as well as over $1.1 billion to support infrastructure projects in Hawaiʻi.”

Sen. Mazie K. Hirono of Hawaiʻi introduced and endorsed the nomination of Admiral John C. Aquilino to serve as the next commander of US Indo-Pacific Command during his hearing Tuesday before the Senate Armed Services Committee.
