Congressman Joe Courtney discusses the news that Washington will focus on the advancement of National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) through Joe’s subcommittee. Courtney promises this bipartisan bill will be very good for Connecticut, especially in terms of helicopter and submarine production in the state. Courtney also talks about how impending tariffs could impact Connecticut companies such as LEGO in Enfield, and the bill he's introducing which would bring 1% chocolate milk back to schools. Milk was eliminated from some schools as a health measure, only to be replaced by less healthy, sugary drinks. Courtney's new proposal seeks to turn that trend around.
