Missouri politics, and the race for the state’s U.S. Senate seat, appear to be interfering with America’s support for the people and government of Ukraine.
There is no other easy explanation for Tuesday’s decision by Reps. Vicky Hartzler and Billy Long to oppose a $40 billion aid package for Ukraine, which continues to battle an illegal Russian invasion.
The bipartisan package passed quickly in the House, by a vote of 368 to 57. It includes funds for weapons, assistance for refugee resettlement, support for Ukraine’s government and other essential programs.
