WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) spoke on the U.S. Senate Floor regarding Vladimir Putin’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine and called for a unified response from the U.S. Senate.
“This war is a terrible tragedy – but it is also a wake-up call for the United States of America. When it comes to defense spending, energy production and humanitarian assistance, our commitments to these issues demonstrate our commitment to global security,” said Sen. Moran. “We must recognize that we have adversaries who seek to use force to recover claimed territory, possess weapons of mass destruction and otherwise destabilize our country and our allies and partners. For those of us in Congress, to ignore these threats would be derelict in our duty to preserve American security and prosperity.”
“Each of these challenges can be met if we in the Senate are unified in purpose,” continued Sen. Moran. “We have done this before. We can do it again.”
