Rep. Mike Lawler on Foreign Aid Package: We Have an Obligation To Support Our Allies

‘I am glad the speaker has made the decision to put this on the floor’

EXCERPT:

LAWLER: "As I’ve said repeatedly since I took office, we must lead. As leader of the free world, the United States has an obligation to support our allies. Between Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan, the United States must get the aid and support necessary. I think it’s been a long time coming, absolutely, but I’m glad the speaker has made the decision to put this on the floor. While it will be four separate bills, my perspective is, I’m less concerned about the process and the procedure, and more concerned about the end result. We need to get aid to our allies. Russia, China and Iran are not our friends. They’re not our allies. They have engaged in unholy alliance to undermine and destabilize the United States, Israel and the free world, and we must combat this malign effort."
