Bonamici Continuing to Gather Information on Syria

Washington, D.C.--Congresswoman Suzanne Bonamici (D-OR) today released the following statement regarding the possibility of U.S. military action in Syria.

“The use of chemical weapons against innocent civilian populations is deplorable, violates international norms, and must not be tolerated, but military action is not always the most appropriate response.

“I will be carefully reviewing the text of any proposed resolution that would authorize the use of military force, and carefully considering the details and scope of specific actions that the President is proposing.

“There are still many unanswered questions, and I am continuing to gather information from the intelligence community as well as from colleagues and constituents in support and opposed to military action.”
