Washington, D.C. – U.S. Rep. John L. Mica (R-Winter Park) today released the following statement on the death of Osama bin Laden.
        “As we learn of the successful mission against Osama bin Laden, we should take this opportunity to recognize the efforts of our men and women fighting in Afghanistan and other fronts in the War on Terror.
        “Having recently been in Afghanistan and met with our soldiers and military leaders, I am once again convinced that, if provided the resources and support of the Congress and the American people, they can complete any assignment.
        “Now my concern turns to terrorist retaliation, particularly in the area of transportation.  Making certain that all Americans are safe and secure in their travels remains my top priority.
        “Tonight as I and other Congressional leaders meet with President Obama at the White House, we will have the opportunity to discuss the challenges that remain.”
