Amazing news for Sgt. #Tahmooressi and his family! For over seven months, Marine Corps Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi had been detained in Mexico under questionable circumstances. Moreover, Sgt. Tahmooressi, a Afghanistan combat veteran, was being denied the treatment he needed in connection to his service for our country – a fact I and other lawmakers sought to convey to Mexican authorities. Since the summer, I had worked with members of both parties from across the nation to advocate for his immediate release. Ultimately, increasing diplomatic pressure on Mexico to expedite Sgt. Tahmooressi’s release and reunite him with his family was the key. There are Americans wrongfully detained all over the world - we should always remember them and work toward their freedom. #MarineHeldInMexico #BringBackOurMarine
