Issues: Higher Education

"The nation's state maritime academies play an unseen and often underappreciated role in protecting our country's national security and economic interests. Senate passage of the bipartisan CADETS Act is an important step for increasing opportunities for our nation's veterans and ensuring America remains on top of the global economy. By expanding age eligibility for financial assistance to students enrolled in America's maritime academies, including at the Texas A&M Maritime Academy, this legislation ensures the next generation of maritime leaders is ready for the challenges they will face."
