The extensive list of supporters includes all living Chiefs of Naval Operations, all living Secretaries of State of the United States, the United States Chamber of Commerce, the Financial Roundtable, the National Ocean Industries Association, the United States Oceans Policy Commission, and the National Governor's Association." - excerpts from Op-Ed in the Huffington Post.
