Madam Chairman, I rise in support of H.R. 8035, the Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, as well as the other two national security supplemental bills and a fourth bill that is full of strong conservative policy priorities.
As we stand here today, a strategic-military troika of evil sits over the horizon marching toward the destruction of the values that we and our democratic allies hold so dear.
We can either turn our heads away and hope to appease this great evil or we can stand by our allies and confront this nefarious scourge.
History has taught us that appeasement does not work.
I rise today to offer H.R. 8036, the Indo-Pacific Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024. The bill provides eight point twelve billion dollars in emergency supplemental appropriations to continue efforts to counter communist China and ensure a strong deterrence in the region.
As the House prepares to consider the Israel, Ukraine, and Indo-Pacific security supplementals, key groups have commended Congress' effort to provide much needed assistance to our allies and partners.
