Gerlach Statement on Destroying ISIS

Statement

Date: Sept. 10, 2014
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Defense

Congressman Jim Gerlach (PA-6th District) issued this statement Wednesday after President Obama called for increased U.S. military action against the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS):

"I am pleased with the President's remarks and agree that we need to immediately expand efforts to degrade and destroy ISIS through an array of U.S. air power and coalition support. Despite his earlier statements that ISIS could be "managed", he now clearly understands the huge threat ISIS poses to America and our allies. I look forward to supporting efforts in Congress to provide the legislative authority to accomplish the goal of destroying ISIS."
