A U.S. Congressional delegation visited the Middle East on an information-gathering trip. Led by Florida Republican Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, the group also included Massachusetts Democrat Steve Lynch, and Pennsylvania Republicans Todd Platts and Jim Gerlach. A C-SPAN video journalist accompanied them during their 5-day visit to the region, as they traveled first to Kuwait for a day, then into Iraq for the next two days, and spent the final two days in Afghanistan.

On January 21 and 22, 2006, they visited Al Taqaddum Airbase in Al Anbar Province, Camp Fallujah Marine base, East Fallujah Iraqi Security Forces Camp, Baghdad’s Green Zone, and Balad Airbase outside of Baghdad. They met with U.S. and Iraqi military leaders. close
