U.S. Senate to Vote on Ukraine Aid This Tuesday

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer announced via X (formerly Twitter) that the Senate will vote Tuesday on a national security supplemental bill that includes significant aid to Ukraine.

The announcement follows the U.S. House of Representatives' Saturday approval of a $95 billion foreign aid package. Of that package, $61 billion is earmarked for Ukraine as it continues to defend itself against Russia’s invasion. The package also includes funding for Israel and Taiwan.

“The Senate stands ready to take the next step on the national security supplemental,” Schumer wrote. “The House at long last approved funding for Ukraine, Israel, Indo-Pacific, & humanitarian assistance. And the Senate locked in an agreement to finish the work with the first vote on Tuesday.”
