Senator Joni Ernst, the first female combat veteran elected to the U.S. Senate and a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, led a bipartisan Senate delegation to Poland and Germany last week to meet with service members, military leaders, NGOs, civil servants, and refugees from Ukraine. The message they came away with was clear: In order to stop the invasion, secure Ukraine’s borders, and help the Ukrainian people, Ukraine and our allies need more support from the U.S. Please join Hudson Senior Fellow and Director of the Center for Defense Concepts and Technology Bryan Clark for a conversation with Senator Joni Ernst on this critical topic.
