From the withdrawal from Afghanistan to the war in Ukraine, the Biden administration has been marked by dramatic foreign policy events. Just under one year ago, Congressman Jake Ellzey (R-TX) was elected to Congress and has quickly become an important voice on foreign policy and national security affairs. A graduate of the Naval Academy and a fighter pilot who served in Iraq, Congressman Ellzey brings a unique perspective to the war in Ukraine and America’s national security challenges more generally. Please join Hudson Senior Fellow Peter Rough for a conversation with Congressman Ellzey on these questions and more.
