I just returned from a trip to Ukraine with my colleague, Representative Spartz, last night. We were invited by Ukrainian officials to see firsthand their immediate needs. The destruction and loss of life was heartbreaking. Everywhere we went, we saw the evidence of Putin's war crimes. One stop we made was at a residential building in Odesa that had been hit by Russian missiles the day before. A grandmother, her daughter, and her daughter's baby were killed in that same apartment. They were among 18 other innocent victims killed in the attacks. Yet, in the face of such evil actions, the Ukrainian spirit remains strong. To aid their fight for freedom, more must be done by both the United States and the international community. Advanced weaponry, humanitarian supplies, and much more can and should be ramped up. The Ukrainians are brave people, and they will win the war against Russia's invasion if they have the tools and the resources to do so in hand. God bless Ukraine. ____________________
