The US Air Force said Wednesday that it needs nearly $5 billion in additional funding to help rebuild two bases damaged by hurricanes and floods.
The Air Force said it requires $1.2 billion in additional supplemental funding in fiscal year 2019 and $3.7B in fiscal year 2020/2021 to help rebuild the two bases.
Without the additional funding, the Air Force warned that it would have to delay 61 facility repair projects at 18 Air Force bases world-wide.
«These are just the first decisions that we had to make yesterday,» Wilson said, adding that «61 projects in 18 states are not going to happen because we have not gotten a disaster supplemental for Tyndall.
