Rep. Loudermilk to Participate in Press Conference to Address Terrorist and Foreign Fighter Travel

Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) will join fellow members of the House Homeland Security Committee’s Task Force on Combating Terrorist and Foreign Fighter Travel for a press conference on Tuesday, September 29 at 11:00 a.m. to announce the release of the Task Force’s final report. In addition to announcing the Task Force’s findings, Rep. Loudermilk will discuss coordination efforts to counter violent extremism on the state and local level.

As part of the Task Force on Combating Terrorist and Foreign Fighter Travel, members conducted dozens of official meetings, briefings, and site visits in the United States and abroad to assess the severity of the foreign fighter threat, and to identify potential security gaps. The review was one of the most extensive public examinations of the U.S. government’s efforts to counter terrorist travel since the 9/11 Commission’s final report.

Members of the press who are interested in attending must be credentialed through the House Radio-TV Gallery at (202) 225-5214.
