Washington, D.C. - Senator Johnson made the following comments on a letter to President Obama encouraging him to help reunite adopted children with their American families in the Democratic Republic of the Congo: 

"One hundred sixty-seven members of Congress asked the president to press the Democratic Republic of Congo about hundreds of children being kept apart from their adoptive American families. I am proud to have signed my name to an effort to help these children reunite with their families and I hope that they will progress quickly through the final stages of adoption."
