CA AJR52

Declares the California Legislature's opposition to base realignment and closure (BRAC) affecting the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Corona Division, and March Air Reserve Base in Riverside County

Notes that these two military installations generate an annual payroll approaching $1 billion and support 900 Department of Defense contracts with small businesses representing $5 billion in economic activity in the region

States that Riverside County has not fully recovered from previous job losses due to prior BRAC rounds, including the realignment of March Air Force Base to a reserve installation

Affirms that both installations provide unique missions critical to national security and disaster response, making them unsuitable candidates for closure
