What Did Illinois Congressman Sorensen Say About The Stop Terror-Financing Act?

Today, Congressman Eric Sorensen (IL-17) released the following statement on H.R. 9495, the Stop Terror-Financing and Tax Penalties on American Hostages Act.

“My number one responsibility in this job is to listen to my neighbors and make sure their voices are heard on the issues they care about,” said Sorensen. “Over the past week, we have heard from constituents and nonprofit leaders expressing their concerns with H.R. 9495. They pointed out how the bill could unfairly target nonprofits and public charities, making them vulnerable to politically motivated attacks and undermining their ability to serve our communities.”

  “And later today, after listening to their concerns, I will vote against H.R. 9495. As the trusted representative for Central and Northwestern Illinois, I will always make sure my neighbors’ voices are heard in Washington D.C.”

Congressman Eric Sorensen serves on the House Committee on Agriculture and the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology. Prior to serving in Congress, Sorensen was a local meteorologist in Rockford and the Quad Cities for nearly 20 years. His district includes Illinois’ Quad Cities, Rockford, Peoria, and Bloomington-Normal.
