Who’s absolutely heartless?
To the editor:
Florida Senators Marco Rubio and Rick Scott voted against the massive $13.6 billion aid bill to Ukraine. Then they demanded that Biden do more to help Ukraine. That’s enough hypocrisy to make your head spin.
Rick Scott said, “President Biden needs to … give Ukraine access to the planes and antiaircraft defense systems it needs … If Biden does not do this now, he will show himself to be absolutely heartless …”
Despite 31 Republicans voting against the bill, the remaining Republicans joined Democrats to pass the bill anyway. Biden signed it Tuesday.
If you don’t vote for the aid, then you’re not for the aid. It’s that simple. To have both our Florida Senators vote against the bill to give billions to aid Ukraine and then complain that the President isn’t doing enough to help Ukraine is beyond hypocrisy – it is they who are, “absolutely heartless.” Florida is shamed by these antics.
