Mullin Statement on Ukraine Spending Bill

Statement

"Last night, I voted to support funding to replace U.S. military munitions that were left critically low after our continued efforts to aid Ukraine," Mullin said. "There's a misunderstanding around the Additional Ukraine Supplemental Appropriations Act and these dollars. The facts are simple. The Ukrainian military is not trained in U.S. weaponry. The United States has gone through our allies to supply them aid, with the agreement that our allies would pay it forward to Ukraine with Eastern weaponry that our allies have, and Ukrainian soldiers know how to use. Now, it's time to backfill our own supply and rebuild our stockpile stateside. That's precisely what this bill does. My vote is a vote to fund the American military arsenal and to continue to support our troops and their operations in Eastern Europe. America is home to the greatest military in the world and I plan to keep it that way.
