"My wife, Connie, and I were visiting our son and his family in Ashdod, Israel. The purpose of our visit was to meet our new two-month-old grandson and our three-year-old granddaughter. We arrived October 4th and, on the 7th, Hamas attacked. As the war intensified, it was apparent that we needed to leave. Almost all flights leaving Israel were booked or canceled. Not knowing what to do, we had a friend send us contact information for Sorensen's office. Congressman Sorensen’s staff were very helpful in navigating the paperwork needed to secure our flight out of Israel."
