LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) - Arkansas U.S. Rep. French Hill has been named to the House Committee on Financial Services Terrorism Financing Task Force.

The Republican's office announced the appointment on Monday.

Hill says in a statement that with the growing threat of the Islamic State terrorist group - also known as ISIL - everything in the country's power must be done to cripple the efforts of those seeking to harm America.

Hill says along with military and diplomatic strategies, it's important to shut down the economic backing of ISIL and other terrorist organizations around the world.
