Mr. Speaker, on Saturday, the Syrian Assad dictatorship mercilessly used chemical weapons of mass destruction on the last rebel-held stronghold near Syria's capital, Damascus, murdering over 50 innocent people, including women and children. This comes exactly 1 year after the chemical weapons attack that resulted in President Donald Trump's launching of Tomahawk cruise missiles at the air base that launched the chemical weapons attack. Assad's actions are a clear violation of international law and human rights, and the world must stand against this indiscriminate massacre. I am grateful for the leadership of President Donald Trump, United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley, and National Security Advisor John Bolton to address this threat to protect American families. I stand with Ambassador Haley in calling for the United Nations to adopt a resolution that would condemn the continuing use of chemical weapons in Syria in the strongest terms and to establish a new body to determine responsibility for chemical attacks anywhere in the world. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. ____________________
