Today, Rep. French Hill (AR-02) joined CBS News to react to the historic prison swap, which released four Americans including Evan Gershkovich and Paul Whelan, and 1 U.S. Green Card holder.
"This is a day that families have dreamed to hear some positive news about their loved ones that have been wrongfully detained by the Putin regime in Russia - it's a happy day."
"What I've always been concerned about is where we've seen America put a price on blue passports by paying money to rogue regimes to return Americans wrongfully detained abroad."
"Haley Stevens, my co-chair on the Task Force in the House for those Americans held abroad wrongfully - we're pleased and proud that this has happened and we're continuing to advocate for those families both here in Congress and with countries around the world to bring them home."
