10/16/19 - Rep. Waltz tweeted "@RepLizCheney is right. The last thing we want is an ISIS 2.0 threatening our homeland and the world. With the Kurds fighting the Turks, who is fighting ISIS?This is why we must do what we can in Congress to prevent Turkey's aggression in Syria. Proud to join this effort." View the tweet here.

10/16/19 - Rep. Waltz posted the following to Facebook: "I felt compelled to join over 90 of my colleagues on this important legislation to impose sanctions on Turkey. We cannot take the risk of an ISIS 2.0, so we must do what we can in Congress to mitigate Turkey’s aggression in Syria. Read the bill below ??" View the Facebook post here.

10/15/19 - Rep. Waltz posted the following to Facebook: "We can't fight ISIS if we pull our troops out of Syria. America must lead in the fight against ISIS and extremism. If we don't, we risk the resurgence of ISIS 2.0 -- and that endangers the region, America and the world. I'm working with Rep. Liz Cheney and U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham on sanctions against Turkey. We must work quickly to punish Erdogan for his actions in Syria!" View the Facebook post here.

10/14/19 - Rep. Waltz posted the following to Facebook: "The few hundred, not tens of thousands, of troops in Syria were keeping a lid on ISIS. Contrary to what some may say about our troops overseas, that small number was actually PREVENTING endless war by fending off ISIS with our local allies. Women and children aren’t the only ones escaping ISIS prisons. As we speak, ISIS leaders are escaping. They are preparing to re-emerge with their extremist ideology. This week, the House and Senate will move quickly to draft sanctions against Turkey for invading Syria. Time is of the essence!" View the Facebook post here.

10/10/19 - Rep. Waltz posted the following to Facebook: "Proud to join Rep. Liz Cheney and my House and Senate colleagues to stand with our Kurdish allies and impose sanctions on Turkey. Turkey must understand actions have consequences. We cannot allow Syria to become a breeding ground for the resurgence of ISIS!" View the Facebook post here.

10/07/19 - Rep. Waltz tweeted "This is a logical decision for the U.S. to make. But I disagree with it. Erdogan cares only about the Kurds. He will do little to contain ISIS, which could have global implications." View the tweet here.
