Biden’s Navy secretary blasted for ignoring Congress on fleet strength: ‘You are violating the law’
Fox News
Sen. Dan Sullivan, R-Alaska, blasted Navy Secretary Carlos Del Toro for ignoring the will of Congress and putting forward a budget without enough amphibious ships.
But the Navy’s budget plan released this year would see that number drop to as low as 24 amphibious ships over the coming years, and the Navy’s latest shipbuilding plan makes no move to make up the difference. The Navy’s decision to ignore the will of Congress infuriated Sullivan, who repeatedly asked why the Navy would purposefully ignore federal law.

"You are violating the law," Sullivan said after reading out the requirement for amphibious ships to Del Toro. "Would you come before this committee and say, ‘Sorry, we’re not going to do 11 carriers?’ No way. You’d get your you-know-what handed to you."
