To increase the number of operational aircraft carriers. 
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-

SECTION 1. INCREASE IN NUMBER OF OPERATIONAL AIR-
CRAFT CARRIERS. 
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following find-

(2) Deployment lengths now frequently extend 
to 10 months, which places considerable strain on 
personnel, equipment, and platforms. 
(3) Upon return from deployment, units are 
often placed in ‘‘surge status’’, requiring them to 
maintain high levels of readiness and to quickly re- 
deploy if necessary. 
(4) An additional carrier strike group would 
give the Secretary of Defense greater flexibility in 
deploying naval forces as well as increase forward 
naval presence. It would also improve the health and 
long-term service life of the existing fleet by pro-
viding for longer maintenance and repair time. 
(b) INCREASE IN NUMBER OF CARRIERS.—Section 
5062(b) of title 10, United States Code, is amended by 
striking ‘‘11 operational aircraft carriers’’ and inserting 
‘‘12 operational aircraft carriers’’. 
(c) EFFECTIVE DATE.—The amendment made by 
subsection (b) shall take effect on September 30, 2023.
