“Terrorists don’t target Democrats or
Republicans. They target Americans, and this is why we must
face this issue as Americans. Members of Congress and
the American public must know the threats we face from radical
jihadist terrorists. The Anti-Terrorism Caucus will give Congress the tools
and resources it needs to communicate those threats to the
public, as well as help them make more informed decisions when
it comes to terrorist issues.”
- Rep. Myrick's statement when announcing the new bipartisan
Anti-Terrorism/Jihad Caucus in January 2007
In January 2007, Rep. Myrick founded the bipartisan
Anti-Terrorism Caucus. She along with Representatives Bud
Cramer (D-AL), Kay Granger (R-TX), and Jane Harman (D-CA) are
the 4 Caucus co-chairs. Members of this Caucus attend meetings where
experts give presentations regarding terrorism and jihadist
ideology.
Rep. Myrick hopes that the American public will see that
Iraq is just one part of the greater war against radical
Islamic Jihadists. She hopes that by forming
this new caucus, Members can educate themselves on the threats
we face so that they can take that knowledge back home and
help educate their constituents.
This caucus now has over 120 members and is getting
valuable information on things such as terrorist use of the
internet, terrorist financing, and jihadist history and
ideology.
