MANDATE FOR FREEDOM IN GEORGIA
(Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, friends of freedom are
grateful that the House overwhelmingly passed the bipartisan, bicameral
Mobilizing and Enhancing Georgia's Options for Building Accountability,
Resilience, and Independence Act, the MEGOBARI Act. This bill counters
the Ivanishvili regime dragging Georgia toward Iranian terrorists, the
Chinese Communist Party, and war criminal Putin.
The passage of the MEGOBARI Act, with a mandate vote of nearly 90
percent, demonstrates America's support for legitimate President Salome
Zourabichvili and the Georgian people and the rejection of the
tyrannical mafia cabal, which is selling out Georgia to dictators. The
Georgian Dream insults President Trump. The only way forward is for
fair elections and the release of all political prisoners.
In conclusion, God bless our troops as the global war on terrorism
continues. Open borders for dictators put all Americans at risk of more
9/11 attacks imminent, as warned by the FBI. Trump is reinstituting
existing laws to protect American families with peace through strength,
revealing that war criminal Putin lies, subverting freedom in Belarus
from legitimate President Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya.
