The U.S. is at a critical crossroads when it comes to the defense of American freedom, security and prosperity. Around the world, the U.S. faces significant national-security threats […] None of these challenges will disappear if America abandons the international role it has maintained since World War II as the superpower leader of the free world. Each threat requires U.S. leadership if the country’s security, economic interests, and values are to be protected. That is why today I am joining with 75 other national security scholars and practitioners to launch the Vandenberg Coalition, a new network committed to advancing a strong and proud American foreign policy.
Beyond the Water’s Edge is our weekly bulletin containing policy analysis, vigorous debate and exchange, and key announcements. Sign up here to join a growing network of leaders committed to a foreign policy that protects and preserves American security, prosperity, and freedom.
