The International Propeller Club of the United States April 27 honored Senator David Vitter (R-LA) with the 2010 Salute to Congress Award.
The Propeller Club recognized the Senator for being a "strong advocate for the American maritime industry." Sen. Vitter sits on the Senate Committee on Armed Services, the Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation and the Committee on Environment and Public Works. He serves as ranking member of the Subcommittee on Strategic Forces.
Sen. Vitter has been a strong advocate for the maritime industry during his nearly ten years in Congress and vocally supports the Jones Act, the Maritime Security Program, cargo preference and Title XI.
"I believe for the U.S. to be a great military power and a great commercial power, we must be a great sea power," he said at the Salute to Congress ceremony.
