TL;DR Summary

Speaker Mike Johnson and House Republicans propose a $95 billion foreign aid package for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan, facing opposition from within their own party. The package includes funding for Israel's Iron Dome defense system and replenishing weapons for Ukraine. Some Republicans criticize the plan as "America Last" and question the prioritization of foreign aid over domestic issues. President Biden and top Democrats support the bills, urging swift passage, while Republicans plan to introduce additional measures to confront Russia, China, and Iran. If the package clears the House, the Senate will consider it upon their return on April 29.
