Congresswoman Duckworth’s Statement on Amendment

[mopinko]

to Authorize Training and Funding for Syrian Rebels

Yesterday, Congresswoman Tammy Duckworth (IL-08) voted against the amendment to fund, train and equip Syrian rebels. She released the following statement.

“ISIS poses a real and immediate threat to U.S. interests and potentially to our homeland if left unchecked. They must be contained and destroyed. I am not opposed to military action in Iraq and I think that to destroy ISIS, we will ultimately have to follow them into Syria to deny them any sanctuary.”
