ARLINGTON, Va. - Today, Congressman Brian Mast (FL-21) issued the following statement after joining President Donald Trump and other patriotic Americans at Arlington National Cemetery to mark the three-year anniversary of the Abbey Gate terrorist attack that claimed the lives of 13 U.S. service members.

“I am both honored and saddened to join President Trump this morning to lay wreaths at Arlington National Cemetery on the anniversary of the bombing at Abbey Gate,” said Congressman Mast. “America lost these 13 heroes because they had the courage to serve selflessly and we lost these 13 heroes because of the ignorance and arrogance of politicians who treat America's warriors as disposable.”
