Washington, D.C.- House Republican Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik released the following statement on the Biden-Harris plea deal with the terrorists behind 9/11.

“On September 11, 2001, as the world watched the deadliest terrorist attack in American history, the American people rallied together in support of our nation and vowed to never forget. 

The Biden-Harris Administration just shattered that promise and betrayed the American people. It is sickening that the Biden-Harris Department of Justice struck a plea deal with the al-Qaeda terrorists behind these horrific terrorist attacks. From the Iranian regime, to Hamas, and now 9/11 masterminds, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris continue to placate terrorists instead of holding them accountable for the atrocities they commit. This pattern of appeasement will only lead to more violence. 

The families of the nearly 3,000 Americans killed on 9/11 and thousands of first responders who died from 9/11 health related illnesses, our service members, including 10th Mountain Division Soldiers, who gave their lives to eliminate terrorists like the ones that the Biden-Harris Administration are negotiating with, and the American people deserve a President that will honor their legacy and uphold the promise to never forget.”
