Rep. John Ratcliffe (R-Texas) issued the following statement in response to the Trump administration's action in conjunction with our NATO allies to expel Russian diplomats from the United States and close the Russian consulate in Seattle:
"I commend the Trump administration and our NATO allies for taking decisive action against Russia's destabilizing activities. We will not tolerate the threats posed by Russia's ongoing aggression toward our homeland and throughout the world. This pattern of recklessness must end."
