1st District Congressman Rob Wittman says he's seen nothing to justify the Defense Secretary's recommendation to shut down the Joint Forces Command in Norfolk. 5-thousand jobs could be impacted. Wittman tells WFVA Town Hall that he thinks national security is at stake. Wittman says he's troubled that the process for closing military facilities has not been followed. He says, "We haven't seen any analysis or justification for closing Joint Forces Command." He says a review of military facilities completed six months ago never mentioned it. Wittman says it appears Congress has been left out of the process. He says cost cutting should come throughout the entire defense department, not just a few agencies.
