CHARLOTTE – Congressman Robert Pittenger (NC-09) issued this statement after learning mainstream media outlets are questioning President Trump’s nomination of Samaritan’s Purse Vice President Ken Isaacs to lead the United Nations International Organization for Migration:

“Ken Isaacs has dedicated his life to serving the least, the forgotten, and the unwanted.  He has served survivors of the Rwandan genocide, assisted Syrian refugees, and led relief efforts in dozens of countries including Liberia, Somalia, Bosnia, Afghanistan, and Iraq.

“Ken Isaacs is the perfect choice to lead the U.N.’s refugee and migration programs.  Political correctness and Washington parlor games shouldn’t be a factor in selecting a leader who truly cares about the people whom he will serve.  In the 20 years I’ve known Kenny, he has always prioritized the needs of refugees and disaster victims.  This is his mission in life.  President Trump made a great choice.”

Congressman Pittenger has worked with Ken Isaacs, Franklin Graham, and Samaritan’s Purse on various humanitarian and missions projects since the 1980s.
