Levin Statement After Syria Briefing

Statement

U.S. Rep. Sander Levin (D-MI) today made the following statement after attending a classified briefing on Syria:

"Today's classified briefing of Members of Congress spelled out what is behind the publicly released report that the Syrian Government carried out a major chemical weapons attack on August 21 involving a nerve agent. That assessment is being derived from multiple sources. I support Congress being asked to vote. The Syrian Government has crossed a red line set out not only by the President but over many years by human society. The Congress must respond and I will vote in favor of a response that is targeted and focused."
