FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
WASHINGTON - Today, Congressman Ted W. Lieu (D | Los Angeles County) issued the following statement regarding two amendments he introduced to the Make America Safe Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2018.

We need to get Donald Trump's finger off the nuclear button. This is not a partisan plea. It is not a call to lower America's guard against potential nuclear attacks. It is an appeal to common sense in the face of a president whose volatile temperament and erratic judgment should rule out allowing him to single-handedly start a nuclear war.
Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) on Saturday accused President Trump's son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner of blatantly lying on key national security forms, reaffirming his call for Kushner's security clearance to be revoked.

Lieu debuted the hat on Twitter Tuesday, sharing a selfie of himself wearing the hat outside of congress.
