This bill is a step in the right direction for our national security. It's about time we have some fixed timelines in place for licensing the export of defense articles and services. It's crucial for the safety of our country that these decisions are made quickly and efficiently. I fully support this bill and believe it will have a positive impact in the long run. #USA #HRBill4215 #NationalSecurity #SupportOurTroops OR Finally, some progress on defense exports! #HRBill4215 #USA #NationalSecurity
