Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) released the following statement ahead of President Trump's scheduled meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jung Un.

"What happens in Korea affects us and the entire world. That is why I've spent the last two years trying to ensure that President Trump doesn't mortgage our national security for the sake of a photo-op with a dangerous adversary in Kim Jong-un," Rep. Gallego said.
