Speaker Johnson rejects Israel, Ukraine aid package ahead of Senate vote

February 12, 2024 at 6:21 p.m. PT
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) preemptively rejected the Senate’s $95 billion national security package to aid Israel, Ukraine and other U.S. allies, saying in a statement that the package’s failure to address U.S. border security makes it a nonstarter in the House.

Johnson’s statement comes after he and other House leaders helped torpedo an earlier version of the legislation that includes sweeping border security measures and other reforms.

The Senate is voting on the package Monday night, with final passage expected any time in the next 30 hours, depending on how long the bill’s Republican opponents continue to delay its progress in protest.

The aid package has been long awaited by the White House, which requested the funds in October, shortly after Israel came under attack by Hamas. Republicans, including Johnson, demanded a border security piece be attached to it in exchange for their votes, but then abandoned the bipartisan border deal that was released earlier this month amid opposition from former president Donald Trump.
