The House of Representatives has passed a bill that provides nearly $40 billion in aid to Ukraine.
On Monday, Biden urged the chamber to"immediately" consider his proposed bill as it could provide additional weapons and funds for humanitarian services in Ukraine.
"The plan was substantial in size, because the need is substantial: We must stand by Ukraine as it defends itself from Russian aggression," Biden said Monday."The need is also urgent: I have nearly exhausted the resources given to me by a bipartisan majority in Congress to support Ukraine’s fighters."The president said the aid"has been critical to Ukraine's success on the battlefield.
Biden's funding bill for Ukraine includes over $20 billion in weapons and security assistance for Ukraine, $6 billion for the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, and $4 billion for the State Department’s Foreign Military Financing program.Get all the stories you need-to-know from the most powerful name in news delivered first thing every morning to your inbox
