The Russian objective is clear, to wipe out the young generations of Ukrainians by attempting to eradicate their sense of national and cultural identity. In response to this atrocity, A bipartisan group of colleagues in the United States House of Representatives and I introduced a resolution at the end of the previous Congress condemning Russia's mass abduction of Ukrainian children and stating that these actions amount to genocide. And on February 21st of this year, we reintroduced this same resolution in the current Congress. For the vibrant Ukrainian American community in my district and all those who stand with them, this resolution is very personal. (01:20–01:40)
