"This afternoon, I'm announcing the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan and providing an update on the path forward. Watch live."

"I originally supported military action in Afghanistan to capture or kill Osama Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda, but we have long since lost sight of our original mission. Twenty years are enough."

"As we prepare to depart, we must also ensure the safe return home of Illinoisan Mark Frerichs and all Americans held hostage in Afghanistan. They must be a top priority."
