Letlow Statement on Iran Strikes

WASHINGTON, D.C. –  Congresswoman Julia Letlow (LA-5) released the following statement regarding Saturday's U.S. strikes against Iranian nuclear sites. 

"President Trump’s decisive action protects America’s security and is a key step toward halting Iran’s march toward becoming a nuclear power. I’m grateful to our troops for their bravery in successfully executing this mission.

Military action should never be taken lightly, but the world’s leading sponsor of terrorism obtaining a nuclear weapon would fundamentally threaten our national security. These targeted strikes were the right call, and I pray for the continued protection of our men and women in uniform."
