WASHINGTON, D.C. (KELO.com) — Congressman Dusty Johnson (R-SD) is part of an overwhelmingly bipartisan vote in the House to get President Trump to change course in Syria.
“Our Kurdish allies stood with the US in the fight against ISIS, now is not the time to abandon them.”
The vote is 354-60 on the resolution condemning the President’s decision to withdraw U.S. Forces. Only hours after Trump’s announcement, Turkish forces opened an offensive against the Kurds in northern Syria.
Both the House and the Senate are working on Turkish sanctions legislation.
Johnson says he hopes to see “swift and robust” sanctions against Turkey.
