The Public Record
Lindsey Olin Graham is an American politician serving as the senior United States senator from South Carolina since 2003.

He has played a key role in various legislative efforts and has been an outspoken advocate for military support to Ukraine in recent years.
I cannot come back to South Carolina and talk about giving aid to Ukraine and Israel if the border is still broken.
I cannot tell you the humanitarian problems people are suffering due to this immigration.
Accept the idea that we're full. Let – give us – take the tools we're willing to give you to stop the inflow.
To the Biden administration, accept the tools that will change things and will get money for Ukraine.
We need policy changes that address the pull factors. There's nothing irregular going on in the world.
If you have to wait four years for an asylum hearing, let's slow down the asylum system; 1.7 million people are ready to be deported.
This is a predictable outcome of bad policy choices made right after Biden became president.
We're asking the administration to use Title 42-type authority to tell people we're full.
I could care less what language people use as long as we get it right.
If you're talking about the language Trump uses rather than trying to fix it, that's a losing strategy for the Biden administration.
I believe in legal immigration. I have no animosity toward people trying to come to our country.
You know what I'm worried about? Helping the president bring the Mideast to a better spot, trying to convince the Arabs and the Israelis to not let Iran get you off track.
If we don't get this right this time, we're talking about another generation of just tit-for-tat death.
The Biden administration went to Saudi Arabia. The idea of normalizing relationship between Saudi and Israel is still the big prize.
Seventy-six percent of the American people, not Donald Trump, believe the border is broken.
If you don't help Israel destroy Hamas, if Hamas is still standing when this is over, God help us all.
I will not help Ukraine, Taiwan, or Israel until we secure a border that's been obliterated.
To my House colleagues, if you strip out Ukrainian aid, Russia will keep going. There will eventually be a war between NATO and Russia. And it will be a green light to China to invade Taiwan.
