In 1994 the US signed the Budapest Memorandum in which the US pledged to maintain Ukraine's territorial integrity in return for Ukraine's unprecedented voluntary surrender of its nuclear arsenal. America's credibility and honor demand that the US uphold its pledge of providing decisive aid in the face of ongoing Russian aggression against Ukraine and its people, who already have sacrificed 10,000 lives in defending themselves against Putin's war crimes.

Russia continues to unlawfully violate and invade Ukraine, annex internationally recognized Ukrainian territory, and has again launched a fresh assault on the Ukrainian people. We need our President to make it unequivocally clear to Mr. Putin that this behavior is intolerable and will be met with American resolve and severe consequences.
