The fiscal year 2022 National Defense Authorization Act established the bipartisan Congressional Commission on the Strategic Posture of the United States to review US nuclear weapons policy, strategy, and force structure and to conduct an assessment of America’s near-peer competitors. Earlier this month, the commission released its final report on America’s strategic posture, the first such report since 2009.

Join commission members and Hudson Senior Fellows Rebeccah L. Heinrichs and Marshall S. Billingslea as they host commission Chair Madeline R. Creedon and commission members Rose E. Gottemoeller and Robert M. Scher for a discussion on the report’s findings and its implications for the future of America’s strategic posture.
