WASHINGTON, D.C.(WNAX)- Ukrainian President Volodymr Zelenskyy spoke to a joint session of Congress Tuesday night, making the case for continued US support of their war with Russia.

South Dakota Congressman Dusty Johnson says it was an effective speech.

Johnson says the western allies have to continue to support Ukraine.

Johnson says despite some republican criticism, there will continue to be strong bi-partisan support for aid to Ukraine.

The just passed National Defense Authorization Act contains multi billions of dollars in aid for Ukraine.
