McCaul Statement on Syria's Chemical Weapons Program

WASHINGTON, DC–Today CongressmanMichael McCaul made the following statement in response to a report about the Assad regime's continuing chemical weapons program in Syria:

McCaul: "This disturbing yet predictable assessment of the Syrian regime's cheating on its chemical weapons agreement comes the same week the Obama administration is jamming through a dangerous deal with Assad's patron, Iran, over its nuclear weapons program. The regime's ongoing use of chemical warfare against innocent civilians and inspectors' inability to get full access underscore a clear lesson: naive bargains with brutal dictators and terror sponsors only guarantee further death and deception. The only dismantling being achieved under President Obama's diplomatic deals is of America's credibility abroad."
