But given the total incompetence of the Administration and their intransigence to send the appropriate equipment, if we are going to be in this war without a mission statement, without an end State stated, then I understand the frustration…

I urge this committee to favorably pass this resolution out of committee and stand with our brave partners in Ukraine.

I am absolutely all for that.

This resolution calls on the Administration to provide Ukraine with ATACMS, while still maintaining readiness of the U.S. military.

I am proud to support the Solidify Iran Sanctions Act and maintaining pressure on Iran.

It is important that Congress lead the way in showing our sanctions on Iran will only be lifted if Iran stops its malign behavior.

And it is in America's interest, in our citizens' interest, in our economy's interest to see Ukraine victorious and ejecting Putin from its sovereign United Nations recognized borders.

We must continue to counter these efforts and hold Iran accountable for its malign and destructive behavior.

I believe, frankly, it is insane to look at modern warfare and not say that air power is critical.

I think it is obtuse to disregard the fact that we are $32 trillion in debt, borrowing every single day to pay our own bills.

I am concerned. I do have a concern that these will be used to go into Russia.

As Ukraine continues its counteroffensive to liberate its territory, the United States, along with our partners and allies, must consider all ways that we can help Ukraine win and bring us closer to peace.

I am proud of the stance this committee has taken since the beginning of this horrific war of aggression and proudly will continue to support Ukraine in its fight for freedom and justice.

I do not like the idea of saying that one system in and of itself could do that.

Last week I was disturbed the Administration was negotiating a secret deal with Iran, including possible payments.

The Solidify Iran Sanctions Act will ensure that our adversaries and those who enable them cannot wait out our sanctions programs.

I would love to work with Mr. Kean and others to come up with some language that I might be able to support.

I support the Administration working with our allies joining efforts together and to prudently send long-range missile capabilities to Ukraine's capable war fighters.
