For his part representative Jumaane Williams said "This is not a sentiment shared by the Trump administration, which is turning its back on our Haitian brothers and sisters [...] This administration has no regard whatsoever for neither the strength nor the struggles of the Haitian people [...] Despite the harm being done by our government, however, I know that the American people still recognize the need to extend aid to our brothers and sisters in Haiti, who have done so much for our nation throughout its history [...] Our government is factually wrong, but our people can still act in a way that is morally right [...] I am hopeful that we can all work together in bringing Haiti to new heights in the year to come."
