On February 13, the US Senate voted for a package bill that includes $60 billion in support of Ukraine.
Aid for Ukraine. The US Senate made the final decision
The necessary 60 senators voted "for" the project, combining funds to aid Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan and humanitarian aid.
It is essential to understand that the bill is being considered without the part that deals with the most painful issue of the southern border, after Republicans blocked the original bill.
It is not yet known whether Republicans in the House of Representatives will agree to support the project after its approval in the Senate.
The House of Representatives hinted at blocking the project with the help of Ukraine
According to the House of Representatives speaker, Mike Johnson, he is dissatisfied with the text of the package bill, which includes funds to support Ukraine.
He stated that he was not satisfied with the lack of provisions on border security.
The Senate foreign aid bill glosses over our country's most pressing issue.

In addition, Mike Johnson hinted that he would not bring the bill to a vote in the House of Representatives after the Senate voted on it.
Absent any changes in border policy from the Senate, the House will have to continue working on these important issues on its own. America deserves better than the Senate status quo, Johnson said.
