As vandals indiscriminately tear down historic American landmarks, Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) is introducing an amendment to the NDAA to stop an effort by Sen. Elizabeth Warren to unilaterally require that the Department of Defense rename military bases and remove war memorials of confederate figures.

“Any discussion about renaming bases should be had in the light of day, out in the open, and it should involve military families, veterans, and state and local stakeholders.  That’s what my amendment would do,” said Hawley.
