Congress & Seapower: The View from the Hill

Maritime Security Dialogue

Tuesday, May 2, 2017 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
CSIS Headquarters

Please join the Center for Strategic and International Studies and the United States Naval Institute (USNI) for a Maritime Security Dialogue featuring a discussion on Congress' perspective on the future of the U.S. seapower with Representative Rob Wittman (R-VA), Chairmain, Seapower and Projection Forces Subcommittee and Representative Joe Courtney (D-CT), Ranking Member, Seapower and Projection Forces Subcommittee.

The Maritime Security Dialogue brings together CSIS and USNI, two of the nation's most respected non-partisan institutions. The series is intended to highlight the particular challenges facing the Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard, from national level maritime policy to naval concept development and program design. Given budgetary challenges, technological opportunities, and ongoing strategic adjustments, the nature and employment of U.S. maritime forces are likely to undergo significant change over the next ten to fifteen years. The Maritime Security Dialogue provides an unmatched forum for discussion of these issues with the nation's maritime leaders.

This series is made possible with support from Lockheed Martin and Huntington Ingalls Industries.
