Congresswoman Nikema Williams Votes for Critical Foreign Aid Package

(WASHINGTON) – Today, Congresswoman Nikema Williams (GA-05) issued the following statement after voting for a critical foreign aid package.

Congresswoman Nikema Williams (GA-05) said: 

“American national security and our democratic allies in Ukraine, Israel, and the Indo-Pacific are all under immediate threat, leaving innocent civilians at risk around the globe. Republicans understood the urgency of this moment, yet still for months chose to play political games and block this critical foreign aid. I voted yes to protect our national security, stand with our allies, and defend humanity by delivering desperately needed humanitarian aid. Let’s be clear: once again, Democrats put people over politics to protect safety, freedom and democracy across the globe.”
