Issue Position: Winning the Global War on Terrorism

Issue Position

This war on terrorism is a war we did not ask for or provoke. While many support a retreat from Iraq, we must not make an early withdrawal or cut off funding for our troops. Our enemies would see such actions as surrender and we would be placing our troops in harm's way. We cannot abandon our country, our troops or the Iraqi people as they push to crawl out from under tyranny.

American history is steeped in the tradition of fighting for freedom, even when we had to fight between ourselves. The brave men and women who serve in our armed forces and their families back home are true American heroes and deserve our support and respect. As your Congressman, I will be committed to making sure they have the resources they need, the manpower necessary to win and adequate medical care and support when they return home.

I promise to do my best to take the fight against terror to the enemy's shore before they can bring it to American Soil again.
