Senate GOP Stalls Ukraine and Israel Aid Bill, Biden Plans to Weaponize Border Deal Collapse
TL;DR Summary
Senate Republicans are stalling a national security aid bill for Ukraine and Israel, demanding the ability to propose changes, including adding border restrictions, despite having previously blocked a bipartisan deal that included such provisions. The bill includes $60.1 billion for Ukraine, $14.1 billion for Israel, and $10 billion in humanitarian aid. Senator Chuck Schumer hopes for a quick vote on the foreign aid-only measure, but the impasse reflects ongoing discord within the GOP over addressing international crises without upsetting former President Donald J. Trump.
