Congratulations
Justice
Gorsuch
Justice
Neil
Gorsuch
was
formally
sworn-in
today.
I
was
proud
to
vote
on
behalf
of
Hoosiers
to
confirm
him
last
Friday:
On
Syria
The
international
community
has
looked
the
other
way
for
too
long
and
has
failed
to
act
as
Assad
and
Putin
have
deliberately
and
barbarically
murdered
innocent
men,
women,
and
children
in
Syria.
I
applaud
the
Trump
administration’s
decision
to
take
action.
Our
men
and
women
in
uniform
conducted
these
strikes
with
professionalism
and
precision,
and
I
join
all
Americans
in
expressing
our
gratitude
to
our
service
members.
After
attending
a
briefing
with
General
Dunford,
the
Chairman
of
the
Joint
Chiefs
of
Staff,
I
am
confident
that
the
President
will
continue
to
receive
sound
advice
from
his
impressive
national
security
team.
Following
these
strikes,
the
administration
should
submit
to
Congress
without
delay
a
comprehensive,
whole-of-government
strategy—working
with
our
international
partners.
Our
national
security
interests
require
that
this
strategy
seeks
to
eliminate
ISIS’s
remaining
safe
haven
in
Syria,
end
the
Syrian
regime’s
war
on
its
own
people,
address
the
humanitarian
crisis,
and
begin
a
political
process
that
includes
the
departure
of
Assad
and
the
establishment
of
an
inclusive
Syrian
government.
Simultaneously,
Congress
finally
should
fulfill
its
Constitutional
responsibility
to
consider
and
pass
an
appropriately
crafted
authorization
for
use
of
military
force.
They
look
out
for
us,
let's
look
out
for
them
U.S.
Senator
Joe
Donnelly
and
I
introduced
bipartisan
legislation
that
would
support
mental
health
services
for
law
enforcement
officers.
The Law
Enforcement
Mental
Health
and
Wellness
Act is
supported
by
a
number
of
law
enforcement
organizations
as
well.

million
people
could
die
in
the
next
six
months
Senator
Ben
Cardin,
the
Ranking
Member
of
the
Senate
Foreign
Relations
Committee,
and
I
introduced
a
resolution
calling
for
an
urgent
and
comprehensive
diplomatic
effort
to
address
the
famine
in
northeastern
Nigeria,
Somalia,
South
Sudan,
and
Yemen.
In
the
next
six
months,
nearly
twenty
millions
people
are
in
danger
of
starving
to
death
due
because
political
obstacles
are
preventing
humanitarian
food
aid
from
reaching
those
who
desperately
need
it.
