A Republican lawmaker in the House of Representatives was so distraught by the latest proposed peace deal for Russia's war in Ukraine that he considered resigning from Congress, according to a new report. Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE) told Axios that he was "appalled" by the 28-point peace deal, which some experts have said seems to have been written by the Russians. The proposed peace plan also made several pro-Ukrainian lawmakers on The Hill furious, including several Republicans, according to the report. The plan calls for Ukraine to significantly reduce the size of its military, cede land to Russia, including land that Russia does not currently control, give up its long-range missiles that can reach Moscow, and stop attempting to join NATO. |

Bacon has previously announced that he would retire in 2027. "In the end, I have a commitment to our constituents to fulfill my term," Bacon told the outlet, adding that he "shared [his] anger" with Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) but "didn't mention resignation."
