The legislation includes another $60 billion in aid for Ukraine. It passed 311-112. Just 101 Republicans voted for the aid package.
Washington Examiner:
House Democrats erupted in cheers and applause when the bill passed, with several lawmakers waving Ukrainian flags on the floor. Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) later reprimanded those lawmakers, noting it’s a violation of House rules to wave flags in the chamber.
The Ukraine bill allocates billions of dollars to replenish defense weapons and services provided to the wartorn country as it continues to stave off an invasion from Russia for over two years.
