    Hi, my name is [YOUR NAME], a constituent from [YOUR CITY/ZIP].
    
    I'm calling to urge Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] to cosponsor H.R. 2913, the Ukraine Support Act.
    
    This is the most comprehensive Ukraine bill before Congress. It authorizes military assistance, strengthens sanctions, deepens intelligence sharing with NATO allies, and restores lend-lease. Ukraine isn't asking for American soldiers. They're asking for the tools to defend themselves.
    
    Will Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] cosponsor H.R. 2913?
    
    Thank you.

    Bill Analysis

    H.R. 2913 - the Ukraine Support Act - is the most comprehensive Ukraine-focused bill introduced in the 119th Congress. Introduced by Rep. Gregory Meeks (D-NY-5), it covers nine policy areas simultaneously: military aid, sanctions, reconstruction, lend-lease authority, export controls, disinformation countermeasures, war crimes accountability, refugee protections, and diplomatic support. With 38 cosponsors and referral to nine committees, it represents the full scope of what sustained U.S. support for Ukraine would look like in law.

    Key Provisions

    1

    Ukraine Reconstruction Trust Fund

    Establishes a dedicated multi-year fund for rebuilding Ukraine's destroyed infrastructure - power grids, hospitals, water systems, and housing - with U.S. contributions coordinated alongside G7 partners. Funding is tied to accountability benchmarks and anti-corruption oversight.

    2

    Lend-Lease Authority Restoration

    Reinstates the Ukraine Democracy Defense Lend-Lease Act authority, allowing the President to loan or lease defense articles to Ukraine without the standard Foreign Military Sales process. This bypasses bureaucratic delays that have slowed equipment transfers.

    3

    Sectoral Sanctions on Russia

    Mandates new sanctions on Russia's banking sector, oil and gas revenues, mining exports, and Rosatom (Russia's state nuclear corporation). Sanctions are structured to tighten automatically if Russia escalates attacks on civilian infrastructure.

    4

    Export Control Strengthening

    Closes loopholes that have allowed dual-use technology - semiconductors, machine tools, drone components - to reach Russia through third-country intermediaries. Requires the Commerce Department to publish quarterly reports on enforcement actions.

    5

    Countering Russian Disinformation

    Authorizes $50 million for Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty and related programs to expand Ukrainian-language broadcasting and counter Kremlin narratives in occupied territories and neighboring countries.

    6

    War Crimes Documentation and Accountability

    Directs the State Department to support the International Criminal Court's investigations into Russian war crimes, including the documented deportation of over 19,000 Ukrainian children, and to work with allies on a special tribunal for crimes of aggression.

    Why It Matters

    Russia has killed over 800,000 of its own soldiers in this war - and still hasn't stopped. Ukraine has held on for three years against a country with three times its population and a far larger military. H.R. 2913 would give Ukraine the tools to end this on terms that don't reward aggression: reconstruction funding so cities can be rebuilt, lend-lease so weapons get there faster, and sanctions so Russia can't keep financing the war. Without congressional action, executive branch support can be reversed overnight.

    Advocacy Talking Points

    • H.R. 2913 has 38 cosponsors but needs a committee markup - ask your representative to push the Foreign Affairs Committee chair to schedule a hearing.
    • The lend-lease provision would cut weeks off equipment delivery timelines. Ukraine is losing ground partly because of bureaucratic transfer delays.
    • Rosatom sanctions are in this bill. Russia earns billions from nuclear fuel contracts with Western countries - that money funds the war.
    • The reconstruction fund isn't charity - it's structured as a loan program with accountability requirements, similar to the Marshall Plan model.
    • War crimes documentation support in this bill would strengthen the ICC case against Putin, who already has an arrest warrant outstanding.

    🇺🇦 300,000+ Ukrainians fled Putin's war & came here legally. Now they're in immigration limbo. The Ukrainian Adjustment Act (H.R. 3104) gives them a path forward. Call your rep: 202-224-3121 #UkrainianAdjustmentAct #HR3104 #StandWithUkraine
