Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) has once again demonstrated his commitment to the safety and well-being of Americans by successfully evacuating a group of stranded individuals from Haiti. This marks the third time during the Biden administration that the Florida Republican has orchestrated rescue operations to bring Americans back home. Mills proudly announced the success of the recent mission, emphasizing the urgency of the situation and the need for decisive action to safeguard American lives.
In his statement, Mills highlighted the concerning trend of Americans being left behind under President Biden’s leadership, citing previous rescue efforts in Israel and Afghanistan as evidence of a pattern of abandonment. As a combat veteran, Mills understands the gravity of the situation and stresses the importance of having leadership that prioritizes the safety of Americans both at home and abroad. He reiterated the call for President Trump’s return to the White House, arguing that the current administration’s failures pose a serious threat to national security.
The group of Americans evacuated from Haiti had been working at the Have Faith Orphanage in Port-au-Prince, underscoring the diverse range of individuals affected by the crisis. The deployment of U.S. military forces to Haiti, requested by the State Department to bolster security at the U.S. Embassy, reflects the gravity of the situation and the need for swift action to protect American interests in the region. Non-essential personnel, including family members of diplomats, were airlifted out of Haiti following an order to evacuate last summer.
Despite ongoing efforts by the State Department to monitor the situation and provide assistance to American citizens, the exact number of individuals seeking evacuation remains unclear. State Department spokesman Matt Miller acknowledged the challenges faced in coordinating evacuation efforts but reassured the public of the government’s commitment to prioritizing the safety and security of U.S. citizens overseas. As the situation continues to evolve, it is imperative that decisive action is taken to ensure the safe return of all Americans in harm’s way.
