What this amendment would do

SA 3669, submitted by Mr. Warner, aims to add a new section (SEC. 849B) to bill S. 2296. Its purpose is to require a briefing on the submarine industrial base.

  • Industry partner commitments for wage increases for non-executive workforce and trade to improve recruitment and retention.
  • Industry partner commitments for specific capital investments at shipyards.
