Schumer Plans Separate Ukraine and Israel Aid Vote

“The Senate voted 49 to 50 to shoot down a bipartisan border security and foreign aid bill after Republicans voted en masse to filibuster the agreement they had demanded,” NBC News reports.

“The failed vote on the $118 billion package tees up an alternative plan laid out by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, who plans to force a vote Wednesday on an Israel and Ukraine aid package stripped of border security provisions after Republicans blocked the larger bill.”
