WASHINGTON -- Rep. Christopher Shays, R-Conn., will lead a trip to the Middle East later this week as part of a bipartisan congressional delegation.
The delegation will include Minnesota Reps. Betty McCollum, a Democrat, and Mark Kennedy, a Republican.
Shays is chairman of the House Government Reform subcommittee on national security, emerging threats and international relations. The delegation will meet with U.S. troops and top leaders in the area.
Further details were not released Monday due to security considerations.
