WASHINGTON – Reps. Marcy Kaptur (D-Ohio) and Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fla.), the longest-serving Democratic and Republican women in the House of Representatives, on June 6 introduced a bipartisan resolution condemning Russian transgressions against international law and FIFA values during the 2018 World Cup in Russia. This includes Russia’s history of violent and illegal action, like the invasion of Ukraine, as well as its well-documented human rights violations and the jailing of activists and journalists.
