“Speaker Kevin McCarthy and the House GOP leadership are considering attaching billions of dollars in disaster relief to a short-term stopgap spending bill, leaving out Ukraine aid at a critical moment in the war with Russia,” Punchbowl News reports.
“Such a move would set up a showdown with the Senate and President Joe Biden over U.S. support for its embattled ally.”
“McCarthy wants changes to border policies as well as an increase in overall border security money in return for additional Ukraine aid.”
