Urgent appeal from Economists for Ukraine
If you're a US citizen, this is a crucial time to call your Representative
Today I’m resharing an appeal to US citizens by Economists for Ukraine. A discharge petition for military assistance for Ukraine is in progress in the House (TLDR: this would ensure the bill for military aid to Ukraine is brought to the House floor for a vote). But it needs more signatures. Regardless of whether your Representative is a Democrat or Republican, calling them as soon as possible is crucial.
You can find your Representative’s contact information here. It only takes a few minutes to make the call but can mean literally life or death for Ukrainian people.
So far, no Republicans have signed: if your representative is a Republican, please urge them to sign. If your representative is a Democrat, Ukraine Rally DC is posting updated information about who has not signed. But even if your Representative has signed, please call and encourage him/her to urge their colleagues to sign.
Please share this message as broadly as possible!
Slava Ukraini!
