The Subcommittee on Oversight and Accountability recently hosted a bipartisan roundtable featuring family members of American citizens currently detained or held hostage globally. The event, which started at 10:00am ET/9:00am CT, aimed to highlight the plight of these Americans and seek further action from lawmakers. It was chaired by Representative McCaul who emphasized that 'one hostage is too many.' The roundtable was part of ongoing efforts by the House Foreign Affairs Committee to address international wrongful detentions.
"How do we cherry-pick hostages?" Several families who have loved ones who are being wrongfully detained in other countries spoke in front of lawmakers at a roundtable House Foreign Affairs Committee meeting. https://t.co/qTDTqi6HPx https://t.co/qTDTqi6HPx
