Loebsack Going To Iraq

Loebsack Going To Iraq

Part of an Armed Services Committee trip next week:

"Since being sworn in to Congress I have attended many briefings on Iraq, and one thing is clear, the current conditions are dire and quickly deteriorating," said Congressman Loebsack. "But the knowledge obtained in these briefings pales in comparison to what is gained from being on the ground and meeting with the soldiers currently serving."

"I am going with a bipartisan group of Congressmen to Iraq to speak directly with our brave soldiers on the ground and thank them personally for their great commitment, service and sacrifice. Additionally, I hope to gain a better perspective on how to best end this conflict and bring our troops home safely," Congressman Loebsack declared.
