"House Speaker Mike Johnson Delays Action on Foreign Aid as Lawmakers Propose Alternative Plans"

TL;DR Summary
House Speaker Mike Johnson is not rushing to address a Senate-passed foreign aid package for Ukraine and Israel, as GOP lawmakers consider rewriting the plan. Some members are drafting their own proposals, including a bipartisan plan by Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick that includes aid for Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan, and border security. While some conservatives oppose any Ukraine aid, others are open to supporting military aid if it's paid for and includes border security measures. House Republicans are debating various ideas to change the aid package, and there's reluctance to support a procedural maneuver to force a House floor vote.
