Warren Statement on Sanctions Relief for Syria

Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senators Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), ranking member of the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee released the following statement:


"Representative Joe Wilson and I have been pushing President Trump to update our broad and outdated Syria sanctions that, if left in place, will harm U.S. interests and the Syrian people. The Trump Administration should take the concrete steps we laid out – or risk walking away from an opportunity to promote stability in the region and help the Syrian people build a better life after years of living under the thumb of the oppressive and brutal Assad regime."
