shame on this house. indeed, iran supplies putin with the same drones and missiles to strike ukrainian cities. meanwhile, ukrainian soldiers are so starved for ammunition they wade into swamps in search of abandon russian artillery shells they can reuse. that is how committed they are to winning this war. and that is how desperate they are for our aid. this congress has failed to provide it for them for 473 days. the world watches us and wanders, does america remain the defender of freedom, democracy, and its allies? has the wellspring of democracy run dry. the free world expects more from the great arsenal of democracy. and so should we. most members of this house do. over 300 members of this house have voted for the proposition contained in the senate bill. on seven occasions in the past year over 300 democrats and republicans voted to aid ukraine. even more of us voted to aid israel. we are not a silent majority. but a silented -- silenced majority. silenced by a speaker who refused to give us a vote.
