That's the problem. They are Lawmakers and not Lawgivers.

That's why the situation in Ukraine is so miserable right now.

Common sense needs to prevail over emotional outbursts.

Lawmakers are not carrying a weapon!! Grape one and lead the way!!!

Any combat veteran knows, more weapons only escalates war. Strange, funding for war can always be agreed upon by both parties. Yet, funding for American homeless and poor cannot. Then again, there is always a profit to be made in war!

Bro, We are in a debt of 30.1 trillion
Try to understand.

[charlesholloway]

We need bipartisan commission to pass Stimulus check for senior citizens.

Can't Poland send those planes via refugee transport?? Don't fly em drive em.. Probably not now but maybe days ago

[lorannwilliamson]

Get a bicycle or horse 🐎, people stop complaining and do something to help youself, invent something super naturally inexpensive for the people and the car industry will be " just there".

[judyshallstrom]

I don't fully understand the difference between sending jets, and continuing to send the arms and misses we are sending now. We aren't going to fly them over Ukraine, just let Poland make them available. I think it's time to go dark publicly on the subject and continue what we need to do quietly.

Send Zelenskyy everything he asks for so his people can live and fight in their own country, or spend a lot more money to deal with a humanitarian crisis of 45 million refugees into Europe, feeding them, building new homes for them, providing healthcare for them, and trying to find jobs for them. It's really simple as to what the correct and most economical solution is.

More money for Ukraine, let’s hope the funds aren’t coming from the money seized from the starving Afghanistan

[josephwilson]

Sure wish Ukraine had some guided missiles that could reach Moscow, see how Putin likes to have them lobbed into his backyard! God bless Ukraine!

[priscillas]

US Citizen here - This is not our war! Ukraine is not NATO territory! Help with Food/Care Packages YES! But, Weapons etc. to assist Ukraine NO! LET'S STAY OUT THE WAY USA!

[michaelmcfeely]

Will the military aid provided to Ukraine change the outcome? We poured billions of dollars into Afghanistan, and accomplished nothing.
