California Rep. Barbara Lee (D) on Sunday criticized the Biden administration's plan to give Ukraine cluster munitions as Kyiv mounts its counteroffensive against Russia's ongoing invasion.
"Cluster bombs should never be used. That's crossing a line," Lee said on CNN's "State of the Union."
"Once you see what takes place, we know what takes place in terms of cluster bombs being very dangerous to civilians. They don't always immediately explode. Children can step on them. That's a line we should not cross," she said. |

These weapons would be a game changer," McCaul said on CNN's "State of the Union." |
