"The ongoing defense and inspiring perseverance of the Ukrainian people in defending their country from Vladmir Putin's tyrannical attempted takeover has been nothing short of awe-inspiring," said Cole. "However, we cannot let our Ukrainian friends down now. The funding approved today will be critical in Ukraine's ongoing pursuit to remain a democratic nation. With U.S. aid amounting to half of all of Russia's defense budget, this is a stand against Putin and other nations and clearly shows that America remains resolutely committed to resisting authoritarianism. I was proud to vote in favor of this critical funding that will be undoubtedly beneficial in helping the Ukrainians finish the fight."
