Restore Support for Ukraine and Stop Enabling Russian Aggression

Restore full military and intelligence support to Ukraine immediately. The White House's decision to throttle Starlink access for Ukrainian forces caused a dramatic halt to mid-strike drone operations on the frontline and raised serious concerns about Ukraine's ability to intercept Russian jet-powered attack craft bombing its cities. Threatening to cut intelligence sharing unless Ukraine abandons its refinery strikes is not pressure on Russia. It is pressure on the victim.
Ukraine is fighting for exactly what Wes Streeting described before the Center for Strategic and International Studies: the principle that a free people have the right to determine their own destiny. That principle is foundational to American political thought. If aggression is rewarded, if borders can be redrawn by force, the consequences will not stay confined to Ukraine. They will reach every alliance the US depends on.
Withdrawing Starlink access without warning, threatening to cut missile defense intelligence, and buying diesel from Russia while Ukrainian civilians are being bombed is not neutrality. It is a choice. I am asking my elected officials to push back hard, demand the restoration of every intelligence and communications commitment made to Ukraine, and make clear that the United States does not abandon its allies to protect midterm election polling on oil prices.
