The Senate Armed Services Committee has passed a Defense Authorization bill which funds 20 additional F-22s, but does not fund additional C-17s. (more details at link)
Half way there. We don't need either, though the F-22 funding also includes $497M for shutting down the F-22 line too.
The idea is to leave both options open to the next president.
Hopefully, the next president will have the guts to kill the white elephant that is the F-22.
