"Senate Considers Ukraine Bill with Conservative Sweeteners Amid Weapon Shortage Frustration"
TL;DR
Speaker Mike Johnson is considering voting on a $95 billion Senate bill to aid Ukraine and Israel alongside a separate package to appease conservative critics. Despite opposition from right-wing lawmakers, Johnson is determined to provide additional aid to Ukraine. He is facing resistance from both House Republicans and Democrats regarding military aid to Israel, and has yet to finalize the structure of the aid, with some Republicans suggesting it be structured as a loan, a proposal previously endorsed by former President Donald J. Trump.
