Background and record
Background. Madeleine Dean is a former PA state legislator (3 terms), former practicing attorney, former adjunct college professor, and a LaSalle University and Widener Law graduate. Dean served on the impeachment management team for Trump's second impeachment.
Role in Congress. She sits on House Judiciary and Financial Services.
Position on Ukraine. She represents Montgomery County and parts of Berks County in the Philadelphia western suburbs (one of the densest Ukrainian American populations in Pennsylvania). She has voted yes on every Ukraine aid package. Her district contains the famous Ukrainian American religious and cultural institutions of suburban Philadelphia including St. Volodymyr Ukrainian Orthodox Cathedral.
Strategic Read. Frame asks in terms of her Montgomery County Ukrainian American constituent base (substantial Ukrainian American community presence), Judiciary Committee jurisdiction over Russia accountability legal frameworks and war crimes prosecution authority, her impeachment manager rule-of-law credibility on accountability frameworks, Financial Services Committee jurisdiction over Russia financial sanctions and frozen asset deployment, and her ability to translate Russian battlefield atrocities into US legal accountability frameworks.
Ukraine Record
- Voting record on Ukraine bills: 100.0% pro-Ukraine (40 pro, 0 anti, on 40 clean votes)
- Congressional Ukraine Caucus member
- Voted YES on Ukraine aid bills
- Serves on both Judiciary and Financial Services Committees
Advocacy Playbook
- The Ask: Push the Judiciary Committee to vote on the Ukrainian Adjustment Act (H.R. 3104), which protects Ukrainians in the U.S. from deportation, and push Financial Services to vote on sanctions bills; coordinate publicly with Rep. Boyle on Pennsylvania advocacy
- Why It Works: Her dual committee seats let her cover refugee protection and sanctions simultaneously
- Local Connection: Philadelphia area Ukrainian families ask her to use both seats
- Avoid: Picking only one committee; use both asks
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.
