WASHINGTON – Rep. Ron Estes (R-Kansas) released the following statement after the United States successfully carried out airstrikes on three Iranian nuclear sites.

"Tonight's decisive action reflects the United States' commitment to preventing Iran from becoming a nuclear power," said Rep. Estes. "Iran – a regime that espouses 'death to America' and supports terrorism – chose to continue to pursue the development of nuclear weapons. To do nothing would pose a threat to the U.S. and the rest of the free world. Instead of weak inaction, we have completely obliterated three nuclear sites, thanks to the incredible men and women in uniform who ensure that our nation is safe and free. We pray for our troops and for God's protection over the United States of America."
