WASHINGTON—U.S. Senator John Curtis (R-UT), member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, today released the following statement on the U.S. and Israel strikes in Iran:
“For decades, Iran’s regime has acted as a destabilizing force—arming terrorist proxies, mass slaughtering its own people, and pursuing nuclear capabilities with explicit intent to destroy Israel and America. They have targeted and killed Americans abroad and are actively attempting to assassinate Iranians and Americans on U.S. soil, and even the President.
“Peace is preserved through strength and resolve. Our Commander-in-Chief is taking planned, targeted action to protect the American people, stand with our allies, and promote stability in an increasingly dangerous world. I look forward to robust engagement between the Administration and Congress as this situation unfolds.
“May God bless and protect our troops.”
