Tune in at 10 for the @OversightDems hearing on #Terrorism and the #VisaWaiverProgram. https://oversight.house.gov/hearing/terrorism-and-the-visa-waiver-program/ …

Horrific #Paris terror attacks evidenced shift in #ISIL strategy with centrally-planned terrorist attacks against civilian targets in West

This shift in strategy is even more concerning given the continued terrorist threat posed by foreign fighters returning from Iraq and Syria.

#ISIL has demonstrated its savagery and willingness to expand its terrorist activities beyond its controlled territories in Iraq and Syria

Imperative that we continue to work together and take steps to enhance our national security against threat of a homegrown terrorist attack

One area where we have found significant bipartisan agreement is the subject of today’s hearing – the Visa Waiver Program

#VWP reflects a security partnership between US and 38 countries by establishing minimum standards for acceptable travel documents
