Sarbanes Statement on Recent Attacks in Paris

November 14, 2015

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman John Sarbanes (D-Md.) issued the following statement today in response to the deadly terror attacks across Paris:

"I was shaken and saddened to learn about the heinous attacks in Paris last night. This was an attack not only on the French people and on the city of Paris, but also on the values of liberté, égalité and fraternité that are shared by many people and cultures around the world.

"My thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families. The United States stands with France in the face of senseless violence and terror. Together, we will seek justice as we continue our fight against global terrorism."
