Congressman Mike Ezell (MS-4) issued the following statement in response to President Donald Trump’s recent military strike targeting Iran’s nuclear weapons infrastructure:

"I applaud President Trump for taking bold and decisive action to eliminate Iran’s nuclear weapons capabilities. The Islamic Republic has long posed a grave threat to global stability, and this strike sends an unmistakable message: the United States will not tolerate rogue regimes developing weapons of mass destruction.

For decades, Iran's leaders have openly chanted 'Death to America' while funding terrorism and threatening our allies. Those words are not just rhetoric—they represent a dangerous agenda that must be taken seriously.

This operation not only protects our national security interests, but also strengthens the safety of our allies in the Middle East—especially Israel—and helps secure a more stable future for the region. I am proud to stand with President Trump and our military for taking swift and necessary steps to defend peace through strength."
