Former Secretary Clinton on the Need to Move Forward State Department’s preferred location for a Foreign Affairs Security Training Center (FASTC) at Fort Pickett

In her testimony before the Benghazi Committee today, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton called on Congress to move forward on the facility, saying, “One specific recommendation that I would like to see the Congress act on expeditiously is the training facility that would be set up in order to train diplomatic security officers specifically for these high-threat situations and I think this is overdue. I know that on a bipartisan basis, representatives from Virginia, which is the state where the site that has been identified is found, have urged in a recent op-ed? that the Congress act on this. I would certainly echo that as well.”
