Newly-minted Arizona Republican Rep. Abe Hamadeh was sworn in to the U.S. House on Friday, honoring the life of ISIS victim Kayla Mueller by using her family’s Bible during the ceremony in Washington, D.C. Mueller, a humanitarian worker from Arizona, was abducted by terrorists in Syria in 2013 and tragically killed in 2015 after being held hostage for 18 months.
Hamadeh highlighted the strength and resilience of Kayla’s parents, Carl and Marsha Mueller, who have endured unimaginable pain and uncertainty since their daughter's abduction. The Muellers have been vocal in their appreciation for President Trump's actions, including the military mission that killed then-ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
