  SA 1998. Mr. TOOMEY submitted an amendment intended to be proposed by 
him to the bill S. 4049, to authorize appropriations for fiscal year 
2021 for military activities of the Department of Defense, for military 
construction, and for defense activities of the Department of Energy, 
to prescribe military personnel strengths for such fiscal year, and for 
other purposes; which was ordered to lie on the table; as follows:

       At the end of subtitle B of title I, add the following:

     SEC. 114. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON LONG-TERM INVESTMENT AND 
                   SUSTAINMENT PLAN FOR A SECOND SOURCE FOR CANNON 
                   TUBE PROCUREMENT.

       It is the sense of Congress that--
       (1) there are concerns with the depth and ability of the 
     cannon tube industrial base to meet the Army's long-term 
     demand;
       (2) the current state of the supply chain risks not 
     sufficiently meeting the Army's modernization priorities; and
       (3) the Army should develop and implement a long-term 
     investment and sustainment plan for a second-source for 
     cannon tube procurement to mitigate risk to the Army and the 
     industrial base.
