The Senate has passed $95 billion in war aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan, sending the legislation to President Biden after months of delays and debate.
The Senate has passed a package of $95 billion in military aid for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan, and humanitarian assistance for Gaza, sending the legislation to President Biden after months of delays and contentious debate over how involved the United States should be in foreign wars. The bill passed the Senate late Tuesday in an overwhelming 79-18 vote. The House approved the package Saturday.
“The President has assured me that the package will be approved quickly and that it will be powerful, strengthening our air defense as well as long-range and artillery capabilities,” Zelensky said Monday in a post on X. In an effort to gain votes, Republicans in the House majority added a bill to the foreign aid package that could ban the social media app TikTok in the U.S. if its Chinese owners do not sell their stake within a year. That legislation had wide bipartisan support in both chambers.
