Co-Chair House Baltic Caucus (D), CA-24
Caucus Member since 7/2017Rep. Salud Carbajal
“ I have had the privilege of traveling to the Baltic. When we speak with the people there, it is not a question of if Russia will invade. It is a matter of when. Now is the time to stand firm in our support of these allied nations to deter Russian aggression.”
