May 24, 2022

Washington, D.C. – Today, Representative Marcy Kaptur (OH-09) – Co-Chair of the bipartisan Congressional Ukraine Caucus – released the following statement after being sanctioned by the Russian Federation and banned from entering the country.

“I am honored to be sanctioned by Putin – a coward whose evil knows no bounds,” said Rep. Kaptur. “Putin is terrified of Liberty and those who revere it, and this latest desperate move only deepens my resolve. Having led the fight for Ukraine in Congress, I look forward to the day when Putin’s grip on power comes to an end.”
