Press Releases

U.S. Representative Mike Rogers (R-AL), Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, released a statement expressing his concern that President Biden's weakness has led to continued aggression by Iranian proxies in the Middle East.

"Since October 17, U.S. forces in the Middle East have been attacked over 100 times and commercial sea lanes have been continually disrupted by Iranian-backed groups. The attacks on our forces in the Middle East will unfortunately continue until President Biden gets serious about his response. President Biden's perceived weakness by our enemies is leading to escalating attacks against our servicemembers and lawful commercial shipping. These attacks will continue until these terrorists understand that their actions will have severe consequences."
