U.S. Rep. Jackie Walorski (R-Ind.) Monday released the following statement after President Trump addressed the nation regarding Afghanistan:
“Defeating ISIS and al-Qaeda is critical to our national security, but it is clear the current strategy in Afghanistan is not working. President Trump has presented to the American people a path forward to deny terrorists safe haven and achieve long-lasting stability in the region. I applaud the president’s decision to prioritize conditions on the ground rather than arbitrary timetables, and I will work with my colleagues to ensure our servicemembers have the tools and resources they need to be successful in their missions.”
Walorski represents the 2nd Congressional District of Indiana, serving as a member of the House Ways and Means Committee.
