About

Elected: 2014 (2nd term; former House member)

  • Background: Senate Republican Policy Committee Chair
  • Committees: Appropriations, Commerce, Environment, Rules
  • State: Limited Ukrainian community; coal and natural gas economy directly affected by Russian-European energy competition (H.R. 1949)

Bio Shelley Moore Capito voted for the 2024 fiscal year Ukraine aid bill but has grown more cautious along with her caucus. As Senate Republican Policy Committee Chair, she helps shape GOP messaging.

Ukraine Record

  • Voted YES on the 2024 fiscal year Ukraine aid bill
  • Not an author of UAPortal bills

Advocacy Insight

  • Ask them to: Become the Senate lead author of a companion bill to the LNG Potential Act (H.R. 1949), which expands U.S. natural gas exports to reduce Europe's dependence on Russian energy.
  • Why it works with them: West Virginia LNG and natural gas exports to Europe directly replace Russian gas. This is a direct West Virginia economic win. The SHADOW Fleet Sanctions (S. 2904) are also an easy yes for her.
  • Your connection: Mention West Virginia's energy workers and the state's role in supplying Europe with an alternative to Russian gas.
  • Avoid: Humanitarian framing. Lead with energy jobs and European markets.

Without this bill, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians who fled the war and built lives in the U.S. face deportation back to an active war zone. This is the single most urgent protection for Ukrainians in America.

    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. 3104, the Ukrainian Adjustment Act of 2025.
    
    Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians fled Russia's invasion and are now living in the U.S. on temporary status. They cannot safely return to an active war zone. H.R. 3104 gives them a path to permanent residency. It's bipartisan, it's targeted, and it's the right thing to do.
    
    Will Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] cosponsor H.R. 3104?
    
    Thank you.
