I am appalled by the shocking images of men, women, and children choking and foaming at the mouth as the result of yet another apparent chemical attack in Syria. The Assad Regime, backed by Iran and Russia, has once again violated international law by using chemical weapons on its own people. As a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, I believe that our government must keep all of our options open to strongly respond to this horrific, heinous, and illegal attack on innocent civilians.
