President Joe Biden has declared his support for measures that would, in part, include aid for Ukraine and Israel.
“I strongly support this package to get critical support to Israel and Ukraine, provide desperately needed humanitarian aid to Palestinians in Gaza, and bolster security and stability in the Indo-Pacific,” Biden said in a statement. “The House must pass the package this week and the Senate should quickly follow. I will sign this into law immediately to send a message to the world: We stand with our friends, and we won’t let Iran or Russia succeed.”
House Speaker Mike Johnson, who currently faces the looming threat of a potential ouster from the speakership slot, has said he believes it is “critically important” to supply Ukraine with “lethal aid.”
