McCaul on the administration's announcement indicating evidence exists Syria has used chemical weapons

April 25, 2013

"After more than two years of senseless murder and violence in the Levant, the United States should be clear with the world about our interests and objectives in Syria. The security of the United States is at risk when armed extremists are given safe haven in a country with scores of chemical and biological weapons that could be proliferated and used against us and our allies. President Obama must show leadership and level with the American people about how his administration plans to respond to these new developments, which, by his definition, have crossed a ‘red line’.”

Congressman McCaul is Chairman of the Homeland Security Committee and a senior member of the Foreign Affairs Committee.
