Ranking Member Thompson: Trump Attacking Iran Endangers Homeland Security

February 28, 2026 (WASHINGTON) - Today, Rep. Bennie G. Thompson (D-MS), Ranking Member of the Committee on Homeland Security, released the below statement on President Trump attacking Iran again:

"Once again, President Trump has attacked Iran without Congressional approval or a clear strategy. As I've said before, we are more vulnerable to ensuing terrorism attacks today because of Trump's reckless, inflammatory actions. I am deeply concerned about the administration's attention to possible threats and its ability to protect Americans."
