HOW TO CONTACT CONGRESS: Telephone the congressional switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and deliver the message below. It is evident that russia wants nothing more than to eradicate Ukraine and all Ukrainians. In June 2025, Ukraine suffered the greatest number of drone and rocket attacks since the beginning of russia's genocidal war against Ukraine. Each week brings more suffering, death, and destruction. Ukraine does not have 50 days to wait for more rhetoric from the kremlin. I urge you to act swiftly and bring to the floor for a vote the SANCTIONING RUSSIA ACT of 2025 (S.1241 and H.R.2548, respectively). This long-awaited and comprehensive sanctions bill will help stop russia's revenue flow that funds its war against Ukraine. Freedom and democracy are more than just words...it is time to support Ukraine and defend Western values!Ukrainian National Information Service (UNIS) unisdirect#RussiaSanctionsNow#russiaterroriststate#StandWithUkraine#russiasponsorsterrorism#SupportUkraine#ukraineadvocacy#russiadidthis! ...
