Russia Sanctions

Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Ms. KAPTUR. Madam Speaker, I rise today to support Congress' bipartisan approval of harsher sanctions on Vladimir Putin and his vicious Russian enablers. We all support suspending normal trade relations and support destabilizing the Russian economy as the price of their savageness.

The nations of the free world and all freedom-loving people have an obligation to stand up resolutely against the tyranny and murder being unleashed against Ukraine.

Let liberty lovers continue arming Ukraine's brave defenders. Let free nations send them the lethal and defensive equipment they need. And let civil nations continue to isolate this rogue and criminal state from all that it needs to function.

The murder of innocent, men, women, and children simply cannot be tolerated.
