Apr 26, 20227:40Now PlayingSenator James Lankford (R-OK) stood up for Oklahoma military families by ensuring we have quality housing on our military installations. Lankford participated in a Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations hearing entitled, “Mistreatment of Military Families in Privatized Housing.” Lankford specifically asked about needed changes to housing on Tinker and Altus Air Force Bases and why there has yet to be lasting solutions to address the aging facilities.
The first panel of witnesses from today’s hearing included Capt. Samuel Choe, USA, Former Resident in Balfour Beatty Housing from Fort Gordon Army Base; Tech. Sgt. Jack Fe Torres, USAF, Current Resident in Balfour Beatty Housing at Sheppard Air Force Base; Rachel Christian, the Founder and Chief Legislative Officer at Armed Forces Housing Advocates; and Jana Wanner, a Military Spouse who has lived in on-base housing and started a Facebook group focused on military family on-base housing issues.
Lankford continues to support and push for updates and quality control for housing on military installations in Oklahoma and around the nation through numerous changes found in the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) legislation he’s supported and in remarks on the Senate floor to his colleagues.
