U.S. Senator Tom Udall (D-NM) issued the following statement following President Obama's primetime address on the conflict in Libya:

"President Obama demonstrated leadership and patience to create a strong international coalition to prevent further attacks on the Libyan populace by its government. As the president outlined tonight, the next step is to make sure the U.S. mission in Libya is more narrowly defined and limited with NATO leading the effort to keep the Gaddafi regime from attacking civilians. Congress must now meet its Constitutional obligations to ensure that the U.S. mission in Libya is not prolonged."
