U.S. has given 1/3 of our Javelin missiles to Ukraine—with many more needed. At current pace— unacceptably—a year is necessary to produce 1,000. Proof that we need the Defense Production Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Thankfully, America is sending Ukraine weapons like Howitzers, M113 Armored Personnel Carriers, Javelins & Stingers from our own supplies. Our cupboards will be bare—endangering our security—without the DPA. Manufacturers need a clear demand signal. — PolitiTweet.org
