Washington, D.C. – U.S. Representatives Adam Smith (D-WA) and Mike Rogers (R-AL), Ranking Member and Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, released a statement following U.S. strikes in Syria. 
 
"Last night, we were informed that the U.S. military conducted strikes against facilities used by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and their proxies in Syria. These strikes come after recent attacks that injured 21 U.S. servicemembers and resulted in the death of one U.S. contractor. We stand united in sending a message to Iran and their terrorist proxies that attacks on Americans will not be tolerated as we continue to work with our partners in the region to avoid escalation of the current conflict."
