TL;DR Summary

House Speaker Mike Johnson is seeking an in-person meeting with President Biden before moving forward with a supplemental aid package for Ukraine and Israel, with funding also for Taiwan. Johnson's requests for a meeting have been rebuffed by the White House, with the administration pointing to Johnson's inconsistencies on border policy. The Senate has passed a $95 billion national security package, but Johnson wants changes to U.S. border policy included in the aid package. The White House is urging the House to pass the Senate bill, while Johnson's options include putting the bill to a vote on the House floor, though Republican skepticism on aid to Ukraine is growing.
