The votes are counted. The responsibility continues.

The 120th Congress will shape U.S. policy on Ukraine, sanctions against russia, military assistance, accountability for war crimes, the return of abducted Ukrainian children, and protections for Ukrainians in the United States.

UCCA will continue working across party lines to make sure the priorities of Ukrainian Americans are heard in Washington.

We encourage our community to reach out to newly elected and returning members of Congress, request meetings, and make clear what is at stake.

The election is over. Our advocacy is not.

Ukraine’s freedom matters. America’s leadership matters. And Ukrainian Americans will continue to make their voices heard.
🇺🇦🇺🇸

Tomorrow, America votes.

Ukraine will not appear as a line on the ballot. But Ukraine is on the ballot in another sense: in the choices Americans make about the people who will shape U.S. foreign policy, America’s alliances, and the country’s relationship with Ukraine in the years ahead.

For Ukrainians, those choices are not abstract. Decisions made in the United States can reverberate thousands of miles away.

American voters have something millions of people around the world are denied: the power to choose their representatives, hold them accountable, and help determine the direction their country takes.

Use that power.

Before you cast your ballot, learn where the candidates stand. Look at their records. Listen to what they have said about Ukraine, russia’s war, and America’s role in the world. Decide what matters to you, and vote accordingly.

Tomorrow, remember Ukraine.

Remember what is at stake when democracy is attacked.

And vote.

🇺🇸🇺🇦

🚨 ACTION ALERT: Russian diesel is heading toward New York.

The tanker Agioi Fanendes departed the russian port of Primorsk carrying approximately 40,000 metric tons of diesel and is expected to reach New York around November 6–7. It is the first U.S.-bound shipment of russian diesel since 2022, following a recent U.S. sanctions waiver allowing russian-origin diesel imports.

New Yorkers should make their voices heard now.

Contact Governor Kathy Hochul:

Find and contact your New York State representative:

Urge New York officials to use every available authority to oppose russian diesel entering New York and to push back against renewed economic normalization with russia while its war against Ukraine continues.

Russian war revenue has no place in New York.

Please share this post and encourage others across New York State to take action.
