Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) Issues Statement on Military Strikes in Syria

Statement

U.S. Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) issued the following statement about last night's military strike in Syria:

"I commend President Trump for his swift action against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Assad is a thug. He cannot murder his own citizens and children without expecting consequences," said Sen. Kennedy. "You cannot reason with someone like Assad- it's like trying to hand feed a shark and expecting to get anything but bitten. I hope that Assad gets the message that there's a new Sheriff in town and that the United States of America will assert its moral authority to do the right thing."
