Rep. Downing on Iran Strikes, WHCD Security, FISA

Summary

Congressman Troy Downing (R-MT), a member of the House Financial Services Committee, says any decision to strike Iran should not be taken lightly but must be weighed against the threat of a nuclear-armed regime, adding the US may need to “see this through.” He also says the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner underscores the need for a more secure venue, arguing “we need to build that ballroom” to better protect the president and top officials. On Capitol Hill, Rep. Downing emphasizes the need to protect Fourth Amendment rights as lawmakers consider a FISA extension while ensuring intelligence tools remain in place to monitor foreign threats. He speaks with Kailey Leinz and Joe Mathieu on the late edition of Bloomberg’s "Balance of Power." (Source: Bloomberg)
