Herbert H. Bateman Award 

2009 Herbert H. Bateman Award

The 2009 recipient of the Herbert H. Bateman Award is Senator Jack Reed (D-RI).  Senator Reed has dedicated his life to serving his country both in the military and in Congress. 
Elected to the U.S. Senate in 1996, Senator Reed is a senior Member of the Armed Services Committee, a Member of the Subcommittee on Seapower, and a Member of the Appropriations Committee.  During his years in the Senate, Senator Reed has stressed the need for a larger submarine and surface fleet, and has worked to increase Navy shipbuilding budgets.  He is an advocate for the Jones Act, requiring commercial ships traveling between U.S. ports to be American-built, -owned, and –crewed.  The Senator has also consistently worked to add funds to the annual budget for the Title XI ship loan guarantee program to stimulate commercial ship construction and jobs in the U.S.  He opposes the Department of Defense practice of using foreign-built ships under long-term lease to fulfill dedicated sealift missions.  His support was instrumental in the passage of tax on delivery legislation for Navy shipbuilders, which corrected an anomaly whereby shipbuilders were taxed on profits before they were received.  
Senator Jack Reed has dedicated his years in the United States Senate to working men and women who build the finest submarines and surface ships in the world so that American Sailors, Marines, and Coast Guardsmen and women have the best in executing their missions.  He sincerely appreciates the skills and hard work required to build ships, and understands that saving and creating shipbuilding jobs is critical to America’s economic and national security.  The American Shipbuilding Association is pleased to honor Senator Jack Reed for his dedication and tireless work in support of the U.S. shipbuilding industry and the sea services of the United States.
The Herbert H. Bateman Award was established by the American Shipbuilding Association in 2000.  This Award is given annually to an individual in the Executive Branch, Legislative Branch, or industry who has demonstrated years of consistent, outstanding, and inspirational leadership in fighting for a stronger shipbuilding industry.  Representative Herbert H. Bateman (R-VA), the award’s namesake who served the First District of Virginia from 1981-2000, demonstrated these qualities throughout his tenure in the U.S. House of Representatives.
