WASHINGTON, D.C. â Congressmen Sam Johnson (R-TX), Mike Turner (R-OH), and Mike McIntyre (D-NC) announced Tuesday that they will serve as the bipartisan Co-Chairs of the Congressional Air Force Caucus for the 113th Congress. Founded in September 1998, the Caucus was formed to focus solely on the issues confronting our nationâs Air Force.
âAs Chairman of the House Armed Services Subcommittee on Tactical Air and Land Forces, I am focused on the important issues confronting our national security and needs of our nationâs Air Force," Turner said. "The Air Force Caucus is a bicameral and bipartisan forum for the discussion and formulation of policy which will have a direct impact on our men and women in uniform. I am honored to serve as the Co-Chair of the Caucus this Congress with Congressmen Johnson and McIntyre. I know they share my concern and dedication to the success of the Air Force.â
Originally the Caucus was founded with 19 members and has since grown to more than 60. Its membership is comprised of a bipartisan group of lawmakers from across the nation. Many have served in the Air Force, Air National Guard or Air Force Reserve.
