TL;DR Summary

The White House has announced that the money available for Ukraine military aid is running out, as Congress remains divided on whether to provide more funding. A $425 million security package has pushed the US to its limit, prompting the White House to provide smaller packages to stretch their support for Ukraine. President Biden has requested over $100 billion for national security, including $61.4 billion for Ukraine, but House Speaker Mike Johnson has yet to outline his plan for Ukraine funding. The most recent package included $125 million from a presidential drawdown and $300 million under the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, exhausting the funding for that authority.
