Sen. Hawley Statement on Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine

Thursday, February 24, 2022

Today U.S. Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) released the following statement on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine:

“Russia’s brutal assault on Ukraine and invasion of its territory must be met with strong American resolve. President Biden must act now to hit Vladimir Putin where it hurts, beginning with Russia’s energy sector. The Biden Administration should sanction Russian energy production to a halt, and help arm the Ukrainians to defend themselves. At the same time, the White House should reopen American energy production in full. This is the time to show Russia and the world that America will not reward aggression and it will not be dependent on its enemies.”
