SEC. 1024. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING A BALANCED 
FUTURE NAVAL FORCE. 
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following find-
ings: 
(1) The battle force of the Navy must be suffi-
ciently sized and balanced in capability to meet cur-
rent and anticipated future national security objec-
tives. 
(2) A robust and balanced naval force is re-
quired for the Department of Defense to fully exe-
cute the President’s National Security Strategy. 
(3) To develop and sustain required capabilities 
the Navy must balance investment and maintenance 
costs across various ship types, including— 
(A) aircraft carriers; 
(B) surface combatants; 
(C) submarines; 
(D) amphibious assault ships; and 
(E) other auxiliary vessels, including sup-
port vessels operated by the Military Sealift 
Command. 
(4) Despite a Marine Corps requirement for 38 
amphibious assault ships, the Navy possesses only 
30 amphibious assault ships with an average of 22 
ships available for surge deployment.

(5) The inadequate level of investment in Navy 
shipbuilding over the last 20 years has resulted in— 
(A) a fragile shipbuilding industrial base, 
both in the construction yards and secondary 
suppliers of materiel and equipment; and 
(B) increased costs per vessel stemming 
from low production volume. 
(6) The Department of Defense, Military Con-
struction and Veterans Affairs, and Full-Year Con-
tinuing Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2013 
provided $263,000,000 towards the advance procure-
ment of materiel and equipment required to continue 
the San Antonio LPD 17 amphibious transport dock 
class to a total of 12 ships, a key first step in rebal-
ancing the amphibious assault ship force structure. 
(b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the Sense of Con-
gress that— 
(1) the Department of Defense and the Depart-
ment of the Navy must prioritize funding towards 
increased shipbuilding rates to enable the Navy to 
meet the full-range of combatant commander re-
quests; 
(2) the Department of the Navy’s future budget 
requests and the Long Range Plan for the Construc-
tion of Naval Forces must realistically anticipate

and reflect the true investment necessary to meet 
stated force structure goals; 
(3) without modification to Long Range Plan 
for the Construction of Naval Forces shipbuilding 
plan, the future of the industrial base that enables 
construction of large, combat-survivable amphibious 
assault ships is at significant risk; and 
(4) the Department of Defense and Congress 
should act expeditiously to restore the force struc-
ture and capability balance of the Navy fleet as 
quickly as possible.
