The one D no vote was someone who voted against because no money for Ukraine, according to the You Tube report from Sagar @ Breaking Points. I want to know that person's name, who thinks Ukraine, across the sea, another continent, is more important than his own fellow citizens. I do hope Justice Dems. can find someone to primary that member.
