Congressman Michael McCaul (TX-10), Chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee anda senior member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, issued the below statement following the Presidents speech announcing his National Security Strategy. Congressman McCaul: The world is becoming increasingly violent and the global threat landscape increasingly complex. From the destabilizing actions of North Korea and Iran, to jihadist organizations relentlessly plotting terrorist attacks against us and our allies, the United States does not have the luxury of forfeiting leadership on the global stage to our adversaries, including Russia or China. They do not support our values, and often work proactively to undermine them. As such, the presidents National Security Strategy rightly prioritizes the safety and security of the American people and our way of life, strengthens border security and interior enforcement, enhances our cyber defenses, promotes a robust economy, and embraces our leadership role on the world stage. Unlike the Obama administration, which neglected our military, President Trump is rebuilding so it is second to none. Also, this strategy ensures our diplomacy and foreign policy best advances our interests and prosperity. Simply put, American influence and leadership abroad is a positive force for peace and prosperity, and we must vigilantly defend it knowing our adversaries will not. I commend this administration for prioritizing and advancing a strategy that better supports our allies and brings fear to our enemies. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
