A Virginia House Democrat slammed President Joe Biden’s defense budget, arguing it leaves the United States unprepared for a conflict with China.

“I have delayed putting out a statement about the Defense Budget because frankly it would have been mostly full of words you might expect from a Sailor, but here goes: It sucks,” Rep. Elaine Luria, vice chair of the House Armed Services Committee, said Tuesday.

Luria accused the administration of pursuing a “divest-to-invest strategy” on defense that involves the decommissioning of recently constructed ships and assumes the country will not see a major conflict for at least two decades.
