Jim Bender on Homeland Security

We must have strongest defensive capabilities in the world

Our country must have the strongest defensive capabilities in the world. We must keep America safe. We should not hesitate to take action in defense of our freedom and our American way of life.

I will vote to fund our most important defense systems, including the strategic missile defense program, to protect our country from the threat of a missile attack.

I will fight to make sure our soldiers have the equipment they need to be victorious.
