An open letter from the Speakers of 23 parliaments and the President of the European Parliament to the Speaker of the US House of Representatives @SpeakerJohnson.
I, as the initiator of this letter, am grateful to my colleagues for such quick and broad support.
In this open letter, we, the heads of parliaments, ask our American colleague to submit the HR 815 bill on US international assistance, which was passed by the US Senate on 13 February 2024 and provides for an allocation of $60.06 billion to assist Ukraine, to the House of Representatives. The bill has now been transferred to the House of Representatives and, according to the rules of procedure, Speaker M. Johnson has the authority to introduce it for consideration by the Lower House of the US Congress.
We, the speakers of the parliaments, called on Speaker Johnson to facilitate the adoption of a historic decision by the US Congress that will ensure US assistance to foreign countries and provide Ukraine with the necessary funds to continue its struggle.
I very much hope that our voice and our call will be heard in the US Congress.
Ukraine needs help!
Ukraine needs weapons!
Ukraine must win!
