WASHINGTON - U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) made this statement today on the attack on a nightclub in Orlando, Florida.

"This is a horrific day for America. Our thoughts and prayers remain with the victims, survivors, and those touched by this terrible tragedy. I fear this will prove to be system failure. Congress should immediately restore the budgets for our intelligence and law enforcement communities which have been suffering. My goal is to prevent future terrorist attacks, not simply respond to them. We are fighting a war against radical Islam and a hateful ideology, not a crime."
