Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that not fully resourcing 
the United States Army in a timely manner erodes the Army’s ability

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 
JULY 23, 2018 
Mr. RUSSELL (for himself, Mr. COOK, Mr. HUDSON, Ms. MCSALLY, Ms. CHE-
NEY, Mr. PEARCE, Mr. ABRAHAM, Mr. BACON, Mr. GALLAGHER, Mr. 
KELLY of Mississippi, Mrs. ROBY, and Mr. WITTMAN) submitted the fol-

RESOLUTION 
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that 
not fully resourcing the United States Army in a timely 
manner erodes the Army’s ability to maintain readiness 
and poses risk to the Army’s ability to conduct military 
operations. 
Whereas, in previous years, the United States Army delayed 
supply transactions, and later had to order parts from 
sources outside the Department of Defense supply system 
and pay more to get parts fabricated or shipped quickly 
to keep up with maintenance timelines;

•HRES 1007 IH 
Whereas, in previous years, the Army was forced to restrict 
to home station training due to not having enough re-
sources; 
Whereas the Army, if not fully resourced, will postpone all 
noncritical maintenance work orders until later in the 
year when resourced correctly; 
Whereas the Army is attempting to add military personnel to 
meet critical skill gaps, and if not fully resourced, will 
delay the recruitment of new personnel which will result 
in units continuing to lack the full complement of per-
sonnel needed to be 100-percent effective; 
Whereas, if not fully resourced, noncritical travel, which in-
cludes relocating soldiers’ families (change of duty sta-
tion) will be postponed and may result in missed school 
year timing for dependent spouses and their children; 
Whereas United States Army Forces Command is responsible 
for the training, mobilization, deployment, sustainment, 
and transformation of conventional forces to provide rel-
evant and ready land power to combatant commanders; 
Whereas global threats require the Army to prepare to fight 
both terrorist organizations as well as possible near-peer 
adversaries; and 
Whereas it takes both significant time and resources to build 
a professional Army: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved, That the House of Representatives— 
(1) finds that not resourcing the Department of 
the Army in a timely manner erodes readiness and 
puts the United States Army at a disadvantage; and

In the House of Representatives, U. S., 
July 25, 2018. 
Whereas the ability of the United States Special Operations 
Command to successfully conduct operations relies on 
adequate resourcing; 
Whereas Special Operations Forces must prepare for a wide 
array of missions to support and defend the United 
States in various capacities around the world; 
Whereas the training and development of Special Operations 
Forces takes multiple years and cannot be created over-

Whereas the success of the United States Special Operations 
Command requires close coordination between each 
branch of the Armed Forces; 
Whereas training shortfalls have been identified as posing an 
unnecessary risk to Special Forces soldiers; 
Whereas the lack of full, on-time funding undermines the 
ability of the United States Special Operations Command 
to work by, with, and through our partner nations; 
Whereas the smaller operating footprint of Special Oper-
ations Forces poses unique operational needs not found 
in conventional forces;
•HRES 1009 EH 
Whereas the deployment cycle of Special Operations Forces 
requires additional attention and resources be provided 
for family and support programs before, during, and 
after deployments; and 
Whereas the United States Special Operations Command 
must maintain a constant level of readiness that is sig-
nificantly undermined by budget uncertainty: Now, there-

Resolved, That the House of Representatives—

H. Res. 1010 
In the House of Representatives, U. S., 
July 25, 2018. 
Whereas according to Air Force Chief of Staff General David 
Goldfein, the United States Air Force is ‘‘the smallest 
we’ve ever been’’; 
Whereas according to an April 2018 report from the Govern-
ment Accountability Office, more than a quarter of fight-
er pilot positions are unfilled; 
Whereas the Air Force has just 18,000 of the roughly 20,000 
pilots it needs to crew its 5,500 fighters, bombers, 
airlifters, cargo planes, and rescue helicopters; 
Whereas this 10 percent gap in its air crew requirement 
could, as Secretary of the Air Force Heather Wilson said 
in November of 2017, ‘‘break the force’’; 
Whereas almost 1⁄3 of the Air Force’s aircraft were not 
flyable, or mission-capable, at any given time in fiscal 
year 2017; 
Whereas over the last decade, the total number of aircraft in 
the Air Force has been on a downward slope; 
Whereas the total number of aircraft in the Air Force will 
drop again from fiscal year 2017 to fiscal year 2018;
•HRES 1010 EH 
Whereas the average age of an aircraft, forcewide, increased 
from 24 years in fiscal year 2010 to 27.6 years in fiscal 
year 2017; and 
Whereas between fiscal years 2013 and 2017, accidents in-
volving all Defense Department warplanes rose nearly 40 
percent: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Represent-
atives that— 
(1) the United States Air Force faces significant 
readiness challenges due to aging aircraft and depleted 
personnel; 
(2) Congress must provide the Air Force regular 
and sufficient funding to address procurement, mainte-
nance, and staffing shortfalls; and 
(3) without this funding, United States national se-
curity is at risk.

Clerk.
