Washington, D.C. — U.S. Congressman Lloyd Doggett (D-TX) today directly urged his Republican colleagues to defend American values by standing up to Donald Trump's appeasement of a murderous dictator, Vladimir Putin.

Rep. Doggett said, "Putin may well have elected Trump, but Putin is against us all—Democrats and Republicans alike—and he's against our cherished democracy. Without his congressional Republican enablers, Trump cannot continue to coddle the Russians at the very time when his Director of Intelligence, lifelong Republican Dan Coates, is warning that we're under sustained Russian attack. Don't await your retirement to stand up and address the truth of Trump's betrayal of our country."
