House Democratic Whip Steny H. Hoyer (MD) released the following statement today on the terrorist attack in Barcelona, Spain:

"Today's terror attack in Barcelona is a tragic reminder that the free nations of the world face a determined and evil foe in those who believe they can spread their ideology through indiscriminate violence and fear. My thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families, and the American people stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the people of Spain in this difficult hour. The perpetrators of this heinous attack must be brought to justice, and we will not rest until the purveyors of hate and terror around the world are defeated."
