Crow Statement on King Charles III’s Visit to Congress

WASHINGTON — Congressman Jason Crow (D-CO), co-chair of the British-American Parliamentary Group, released the following statement on King Charles III’s visit to Congress:

“The United Kingdom is one of our nation’s strongest allies. Our soldiers fought together during World War II to defend democracy against fascism. We built one of the strongest defense alliances as founding members of NATO. And when America was attacked on September 11th, the United Kingdom answered the call and fought alongside me and other American service members in Iraq and Afghanistan against terrorism.

“America is safer and stronger when we stand by our allies and friends. Today, we welcome King Charles III to the U.S. Capitol as we work to strengthen the bonds and special relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States.” 

As co-chair of the British-American Parliamentary Group, Congressman Crow today served on the Escort Committee who greeted King Charles and Queen Camilla upon their arrival to the U.S. House and escorted His Majesty to the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives.
