$95bn...Like the Senate package. What was the last 6 months for? Just to change part of Ukraine's aid into a loan?

The Senate bill was $60bn Ukraine, $14.1bn Israel, $9.2bn Humanitarian Assistance, $4.8bn Indo-Pacific and $7.2bn "Other" which equalled $95.3bn. Johnson is proposing $61bn Ukraine, $17bn Israel, $9bn Humanitarian Assistance and $8bn Indo-Pacific which equals $95bn. What the fuck were the last few months for?

The loan can be forgiven in full after 2026, Lmao.



What am I missing...This is just the Senate bill with extra steps...Surely I'm missing something...It couldn't have taken him months to write this shit out...

He has also said they'll be a separate border bill...MTG is going to be absolutely fuming.



The first part is incorrect, even that gives Biden an out.

Mike Johnson

After significant Member feedback and discussion, the House Rules Committee will be posting soon today the text of three bills that will fund America’s national security interests and allies in Israel, the Indo-Pacific, and Ukraine, including a loan structure for aid, and enhanced strategy and accountability.

These will be brought to the floor under a structured rule that will allow for an amendment process, alongside a fourth bill that includes the REPO Act, TikTok bill, sanctions and other measures to confront Russia, China, and Iran.

The Rules Committee will also be posting text on a border security bill that includes the core components of H.R.2, under a separate rule that will allow for amendments.

Text of the first three bills will be posted shortly, while the fourth bill under the same rule will be posted later today. The border security bill will also be posted later today.

By posting text of these bills as soon as they are completed, we will ensure time for a robust amendment process. We expect the vote on final passage on these bills to be on Saturday evening.

Thank you all for your feedback and support. I value every Member of this conference and look forward to continuing our work together.

Robust amendment process.

Lets wait and see if they fuck this up.

Leaving the final vote for Saturday...





It's vital that Democrats make sure Ukraine aid is passed first, don't give the Republicans even an inch to fuck around with.
