Rep. Heinrich introduced H.R. 1132 to honor the USS New Mexico as the sixth Virginia-class submarine commissioned by the U.S. Navy to protect and defend the United States of America. The USS New Mexico was commissioned on March 27, 2010 at Norfolk Naval Base in Virginia.

Constructed nearly four months ahead of schedule, this world-class platform contains some of the most advanced technologies in the entire force. Among its many capabilities, this nuclear submarine will be able to attack targets ashore with highly-accurate Tomahawk missiles, while also conducting covert surveillance missions in both deep and littoral waters, said Rep. Heinrich on the floor of the House today.
