Senate Passes USD$40 Billion Ukraine Aid Package

US

The United States Senate has passed the ~USD$40 billion Ukraine aid package with a strong bipartisan vote and synched the bill with the House of Representatives.

  • The bill will now head to President Biden's desk for his signature before the President departs on his Asian tour this evening.
  • The Senate voted 86-11 to break cloture at noon to advance bill to a final passage vote.
  • The 11 Republicans 'noes' were Senators Blackburn (R-TN), Boozman (R-AR), Braun (R-IN), Crapo (R-ID), Hagerty (R-TN), Hawley (R-MO), Lee (R-UT), Lummis (R-WY), Marshall (R-KS), Paul (R-KY), and Tuberville (R-AL).
  • Before the vote Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said: 'It is beyond troubling to see a growing circle of Senate Republicans proudly oppose Ukrainian funding. It appears more and more MAGA republicans are on the same soft-on-Putin playbook that we saw used by former President Trump.'
