Rep. Jason Crow, experts react to pulling troops from Afghanistan by 9/11 The White House has set a Sept. 11 deadline to leave Afghanistan. Former U.S. Army Ranger and current Congressman Jason Crow, D-Colorado, says it's time for troops to come home. By: Blayke Roznowski and last updated 2021-04-14 14:58:28-04 DENVER â Democratic U.S. Congressman Jason Crow said it's "time to bring our men and women home," in response to the announcement President Joe Biden will withdraw all troops from Afghanistan by Sept. 11. "It is time to end our nation's longest war, there's no doubt about that," Crow, a former U.S. Army Ranger, said in an interview with Denver7. "But I want to make sure we're doing so in a way that protects our men and women in uniform over there because withdrawal operations are some of the riskiest things we do in the military. So, I want to make sure we're doing it right. That we are doing so in a way that keeps faith with our allies â there are more NATO troops than there are American troops right now â and also in a way that protects the vulnerable populations of men and women and children from the Taliban."
