US Senate Rejects Emergency Aid To Ukraine And Israel Despite Biden’s Warning

Republican senators vetoed a White House request for $106 billion in emergency aid, largely for Ukraine and Israel on Wednesday, citing the omission of immigration reforms that conservatives had wanted as part of the package.

President Joe Biden suffered a severe setback in the vote after warning Congress earlier in the day that Russian President Vladimir Putin would not stop with victory in Ukraine and could potentially strike a NATO member.

The package would include approximately $60 billion to assist Ukraine in maintaining pressure on Russia throughout the harsh winter months, as well as approximately $10 billion for Israel in its war with Hamas militants, as well as some aid for Taiwan.
