"Bipartisan House Members Propose Combined Border and Foreign Aid Bill"

A bipartisan group of House lawmakers has introduced a $66.3 billion proposal, titled the "Defending Borders, Defending Democracies Act," which aims to provide defense-only aid for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan, as well as funds for the U.S. southern border. The legislation also includes measures to address the surge of migrants at the border. While it's not clear if GOP leadership will consider the proposal, Republican Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick emphasized the importance of securing borders and assisting allies. The proposal may face challenges in gaining support, but Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham expressed potential support for the new bipartisan plan.
