This bill tweaks timelines—maybe it’s smart, maybe it’s just stretching the truth for bureaucrats.

Stretching short-term work to 18 months? Sounds like a loophole for cutting workers’ rights out of shipbuilding.

Changing definitions in defense work—sometimes it’s efficiency, sometimes it's just paperwork gymnastics.

If you want a stronger Navy, you can’t babysit every timeline; this bill cuts through the nonsense.

The Navy’s redefining short-term just to dodge labor standards—when did defense become a loophole factory?

More time in ‘short-term’ means less job security—nice try, but we're not buying this naval smoke screen.
right-leaning 04/17/2025
Extending short-term work to 18 months means more flexibility and less red tape—finally, some common sense in defense.

More time means better projects, faster ships—let’s build, not bicker over definitions.

An 18-month ‘short-term’? That’s like calling a mini-series a short film.
