Hoeven Statement on U.S. Strikes in Iran

WASHINGTON - Senator John Hoeven, a member of the Senate Defense Appropriations Committee, issued the following statement on Iran:

"Iran is the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism and has been relentless in seeking nuclear capabilities. Despite the administration's efforts to reach a diplomatic solution, the Iranian regime has refused to negotiate in good faith while murdering their own people. These strikes, in coordination with our ally Israel, will keep the regime from rebuilding its nuclear weapons program. We are grateful for our brave servicemembers for their skill and dedication and pray for their safety and success in keeping our nation secure and free."
