Coffman Calls on White House to Bring Marine Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi Home from Mexico

Statement

Date: Oct. 3, 2014
Location: Washington, DC

Today, Congressman Mike Coffman blistered the White House for not making greater efforts to bring Marine Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi home from Mexico, where he has been detained since mistakenly crossing the border.

"It is unconscionable that the White House has not made greater efforts to see Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi brought home," said Congressman Mike Coffman. "How can the White House justify negotiating with terrorists to release Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl but not pressuring the Mexican government to release Sgt. Tahmooressi?"
