(KLZA)-- Nebraska 3rd District Congressman Adrian Smith made a visit to Falls City Thursday, meeting for about 40 minutes with a small contingent of people at the Falls City EDGE conference room.

Smith is a Republican who took his seat in Congress in 2007.

Smith addressed a number of topics and responded to topics presented by those in attendance.

MSC News asked the Congressman for his thoughts on the U.S. possibly taking an active role in the battle between Israel and Iran as President Donald Trump decides if the United States will take an active role in the war.

Smith suggested we keep all of our options on the table and that our strong support of Israel will can deliver positive results in delivering calm around the world.

The national debt is currently more than $36 trillion, which is the highest national debt in the world. The debt represents the total amount of money the U.S. Federal Government has borrowed and not yet repaid.

Smith says the biggest driver of debt for the country is
healthcare and the cost of it. He says healthcare is impacting spending at the federal level.

Smith says it will be impossible for the country to tax its way out of debt or cut enough spending to reduce the debt, but rather a combination of the two.
