00:00 Mr. Speaker, last Saturday, Iran launched an unprecedented attack on our key democratic
00:08 ally, Israel.
00:10 The government of Iran is the leading state sponsor of terrorism worldwide.
00:16 It consistently uses proxies to attack the Jewish state and supplies weapons to aid Putin's
00:22 invasion of Ukraine.
00:24 Iran's direct attack on Israel underscores the serious threat to the global order and
00:30 to democracy that the world is facing.
00:34 Israel is under attack.
00:35 Ukraine is running out of ammunition as we speak.
00:39 It's far past time for Congress to act.
00:42 The Speaker must immediately bring the Senate supplemental aid package to the floor.
00:48 That aid package passed the Senate with 70 votes from both Democrats and Republicans.
00:53 Bring it to the floor now so we can pass it, send it to the President's desk, and deliver
00:59 this long overdue, crucially needed aid to our allies as soon as possible.
01:05 I yield back.
