hello, i'm carl nasman.
after months of stalling,
the us house of representatives
will finally move ahead
with a vote on an aid package
for ukraine — along
with several other bills,
including funding for israel
and the indo—pacific.
house speaker mikejohnson had
delayed bringing legislation
to the house floor,
amid republican opposition
to funding for kyiv.
his new proposed foreign aid
package splits funding
for israel, taiwan, and ukraine
into three separate bills,
with $61 billion in aid
for ukraine and regional
partners, $26 billion
in support for israel,
and $8 billion for taiwan
and other us allies
in the indo—pacific region.
the bills are something
house republican french hill
would support, saying they're
in america's national security.
isa
is a fundamental tenet to
improve national security. i
