@JacksonLeeTX18 Thank you, Congresswoman Jackson Lee. We hope to have the opportunity to join you in welcoming the Prime Minister of Japan to Houston one day.
Can Kishida convey the critical value of the alliance to a more skeptical Congress?
According to NAJAS Vice Chair @emmachanlettave , the “stakes are high for Japanese PM’s address to Congress.”
Nine years ago I stood on the House floor and watched Prime Minister Shinzo Abe deliver an address to a joint meeting of Congress. In this piece I reflect on that occasion and the starkly different circumstances for PM Kishida’s address tomorrow.
