The U.S. Army finds itself with no shortage of challenges. Recent budgets have exerted downward pressure on many of their programs; COVID-19 and a strong economy make recruiting difficult. The procurement holiday from 2001-2020 created a pressing need for Army modernization. As Congress turns its attention to the FY2023 annual budget and authorization bills they will have plenty of questions for Army leaders about how the service will navigate these challenges. Join Heritage’s Thomas Spoehr and special guest, General James C. McConville, Chief of Staff of the Army, for a preview of the Army’s answers to these relevant questions and the Army’s message to Congress for 2023.
