Griffin: Bin Laden’s Death an ‘Historic Moment’ for All Americans

Congressman Tim Griffin (AR-02), a member of the House Armed Services and Foreign Affairs Committees, issued the following statement today in response to reports of Osama Bin Laden’s death:

  “The death of Osama Bin Laden is great news for the United States, our allies and the world. This is an historic moment for our nation. Let there be no doubt: this is a major achievement and a victory for all Americans, especially for the men and women of the U.S. military and intelligence communities, who have sacrificed, along with their families, for the last ten years. While Bin Laden’s death is a very important event, our nation must remain committed to vigorously fighting the war on terror in order to protect our nation from those who would do us harm.”
