Peg Littleton on Homeland Security |
As a county commissioner, I oversee a jurisdiction that hosts six major military bases. I have been an active supporter of military operations and have worked to protect Colorado from the federal government's base realignment closure process and other downsizing measures.
In the United States Senate, I will continue working to ensure the military's efforts to consolidate and concentrate operations benefits Colorado. I will actively support the expansion of cyber security and assist Colorado in becoming the cyber capitol of the world. I will fight for military funding adequate to ensure our country maintains a superior national defense. I will fight for more and better training and equipment for the men and women who protect our vital interests.
As commissioner in a jurisdiction that hosts six major military bases, I have developed connections with top military leaders who advise me on the increasingly complicated threats posed to our way of life. In the Senate, I will call on the brightest military and foreign policy experts to help make decisions in the interest of keeping Americans safe.
As a senator, I will make public safety among my highest priorities. The men and women who serve our communities in law enforcement have my unwavering support.
I will not support efforts to move detainees from Gitmo to Colorado.
