States Air Force, truly the greatest, as we have seen over and over and 
over again.
  To ensure our status as the strongest and most effective Air Force in 
the world, it is imperative that we invest in a highly mission-capable 
fleet of frontline fighter jets.
  That is why I have introduced H.R. 4027, the Frontline Fighter Force 
First Act. The legislation mandates that we prioritize combat-coded 
fighters, evaluating both the immediate and future needs of vital 
fighters like the F-15E Strike Eagle at places such as Seymour Johnson 
Air Force Base and Next Generation Air Dominance.
  Air power and superiority are must-have assets in modern warfare, 
which is why I call upon my colleagues in Congress to pass the 
Frontline Fighter Force First Act without delay.
