Statement of U.S. Senator Herb Kohl on the President's Address to the Nation on Afghanistan

"We've been in Afghanistan for longer than any war in our history, our troops have made outstanding progress and Osama bin Laden is dead.  It's time to bring our people home and rebuild our country.  As the President said, it's vital that we end our combat mission in Afghanistan and shift the responsibility for their security to their own government."
