Press Release

Washington, D.C.- U.S. Representative Mike Rogers (R-AL) released a statement urging President Biden to bolster his support for Ukraine in the face of Russian aggression.

"There is an old Leninist adage that Putin lives by. 'Probe with bayonets; if you encounter mush, proceed; if you encounter steel, stop.' The time to accelerate the flow of steel in the form of heavy weapons to Ukraine was weeks ago. Every day that you hesitate in doing so only invites further aggression. The world is watching, Mr. President."
