WASHINGTON,
D.C. – U.S. Representative Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) joined three other House
members in introducing a bipartisan resolution commending Turkey and Greece.
The resolution, H. Con. Res. 188, commends Turkey and Greece for their
mutual cooperation and swift response to the recent earthquakes in both
countries and for their assistance in providing each other with humanitarian
aid and rescue relief.
"I
am pleased to join with my colleagues in introducing this resolution.
I commend the nations of Turkey and Greece for their efforts to help
each other at a time of great loss and tragedy. I will work with
my colleagues in Congress to ensure that the United States assists both
of these long-standing allies in rebuilding after the earthquakes," Schakowsky
said.
Representative
Mike Bilirakis (R-FL) is the chief sponsor of the Resolution. In
addition to Schakowsky, the Resolution is cosponsored by Representatives
Carolyn Maloney (D-NY) and Dan Burton (R-IN).
