Congressman Gregory W. Meeks Statement on Guilty Verdict in JFK Bomb Plot Case
Statement
Issues: National Security Legal
"I am pleased the American legal system has prevailed, and that potential perpetrators of unspeakable evil have been brought to justice. This verdict affirms the terrific work that our local law enforcement and federal anti-terrorism agencies have done to ensure the safety of New Yorkers.
"Unfortunately, New York remains a perennial target of nefarious individuals because of what the city represents: openness, opportunity, and liberty for all who reach her shores. Therefore, I urge my colleagues to maintain strong funding for police, Homeland Security, and anti-terrorism programs to protect all of New York's landmarks and ports."
