WASHINGTON— Senator Tim Scott released the following statement upon passage of the Coast Guard Reauthorization Act, which secured the Coast Guard Air Facility in Charleston:
"For years, I’ve worked to ensure that the Coast Guard Air Facility in Charleston stays open and fully functional. Our state is blessed to have not only a beautiful coastline—but a useful one. Countless industries depend on safe and navigable waters off the coast of South Carolina to do their business, and as a proud military state, we know that the Coast Guard needs to have a presence in the Lowcountry to perform this critical mission every day."
