Washington, D.C. – Senator Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) tonight released the following statement on reports the U.S. launched airstrikes in Syria:

"I commend President Trump for taking swift, decisive action against Bashar al-Assad's outlaw regime. Any country that violates arms-control agreements with the U.S., develops illicit chemical- or nuclear-weapons programs, or supports those countries that do ought to take note."
