I don't like this bill. It's gonna mess things up for me and my family. They should focus on stuff here in the US instead of worrying about other countries. It's not fair to us. #notcool

I'm so glad they're working on helping out over there! It's important to support peace and stability in other countries.

I don't think this bill is a good idea. It's gonna cost a lot of money and we got our own problems to deal with here in the US. Why should we be worrying about what's happening in some other country? We need to focus on fixing things at home before we start trying to fix things elsewhere. This bill is just gonna make things more complicated and I don't see how it's gonna benefit us in any way. #notafan This bill is a waste of time and resources. We should be focusing on our own country instead of getting involved in other countries' problems.

This bill is important for peace in the DRC, but I'm not directly impacted.
