South Carolina Republican Congressman introduces resolution to place Zelenskyy bust in US Capitol

A South Carolina Republican Congressman is introducing a resolution that could, if passed, place a bust of Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the U.S. Capitol.

The resolution was introduced by Rep. Joe Wilson, R-S.C., on Monday and would direct the Fine Arts Board to obtain a bust of Zelenskyy “for display in the House of Representatives wing of the United States Capitol.”

“Resolved, That the House of Representatives directs the Fine Arts Board to obtain a bust of the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, for display in a suitable, permanent location in the House of Representatives wing of the United States Capitol,” the resolution states.

The resolution doesn’t have any cosponsors, but it already has opposition from a Republican.

“There is now a House resolution that seeks to put a display of Zelenskyy’s head in the US Capitol. Was the $100+ billion to Ukraine not enough?,” Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., said in a Tweet.
