Statement

Date: April 7, 2017
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Defense

Congresswoman Lois Frankel (FL-21) released the following statement today on U.S. airstrikes in Syria:

"The war in Syria is the greatest humanitarian crisis since World War II, killing hundreds of thousands and displacing millions of people. The targeted U.S. airstrikes in response to Assad's brutal chemical attack must be followed by a long-term, comprehensive strategy aimed at protecting innocent civilians. The President should work with our allies, consult with Congress, and adopt a humane policy towards refugees fleeing the unspeakable violence."
