Lawson Statement on the Trump-Putin Summit

WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Rep. Al Lawson released the following statement after President Trump's meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin:

“Today’s meeting in Helsinki between President Trump and Vladimir Putin was utterly disgraceful. As an American, I am embarrassed that the President of the United States would discredit our intelligence community and side with a dictator such as Putin. No other president, in my lifetime, has been more reckless than Donald J. Trump. Actions such as these are an attack on our democracy and are truly disappointing.”
