Kay Hagan: “I couldn't agree more. And with that, I really want to thank all of our witnesses today for being here...”

The Department of Justice and Department of Homeland Security have launched an initiative to partner with local communities to counter extremist recruiting.

I am pleased that the strategy that the administration has developed for defeating ISIS does include the training and equipping the moderate Syrian opposition.

I also think it's critical that the people of Syria have an alternative other than ISIS or other radical terrorist groups like it or the Assad regime.

Thank you for the question.
