Re: Sign the petition to Congress: Support funding for Ukraine!

Friend, President Biden has warned that we can't afford to let American aid to Ukraine be interrupted. We cannot afford to see Ukraine's defense falter. Now, we are all [worried]( about the complete disarray of the U.S. House, which jeopardizes the ability to ensure Ukraine funding. [Sign the petition to Congress: Support funding for Ukraine.]( [SIGN THE PETITION]( The people of Ukraine deserve international support against an aggressive tyrannical neighbor. Supporting Ukraine against Russian aggression is essential to America’s national security and the upholding of democratic values. Unfortunately, continued funding now seems [delayed]( until the House elects a new Speaker. We cannot afford any continued delays. It’s time to get this done. [Sign the petition to Congress: Ukraine must prevail in its fight for sovereignty. The Congress must provide the necessary military and humanitarian aid.]( [SIGN THE PETITION]( Thanks for all you do, Erin Tulley, Daily Kos P.S. Below is an email we sent out earlier calling on Congress to pass funding for Ukraine: --------------------------------------------------------------- Friend, Congress narrowly avoided a government shutdown by passing a 47-day clean funding bill, but it did not include necessary funding for Ukraine. Now that Kevin McCarthy has been booted and the House has no Speaker, Ukraine funding is in jeopardy. But [we have a plan to get it done](, and now is the time to up the pressure. [Sign the petition to Congress: Support funding for Ukraine!]( [SIGN THE PETITION]( Ukraine has been under relentless attack from Russia since February 2022. The war has escalated beyond all expectations, with Russia employing tactics that include the [weaponization]( of food, energy, and even abducted children. The stakes are high, not just for Ukraine but for the world. As President Biden [asked]( at the United Nations, "If you allow Ukraine to be carved up, is the independence of any nation secure?" The answer is a resounding no. Ukraine's fight is a fight for the democratic values that America holds dear. Moreover, Ukraine is [concerned]( that its stockpiles are dwindling and defense contractors are struggling to meet demand. The United States is key to helping Ukraine sustain its defense and humanitarian efforts. Failing to support Ukraine could [embolden]( not just Russia but also other authoritarian regimes, including China.
