Senators release a $118 billion package that pairs border policies with aid for Ukraine and Israel
In a call with reporters after releasing the legislation, Schumer said he has never worked so closely with McConnell. ...
Without the Ukraine aid, Schumer said, he believes Russian President Vladimir Putin “could be rolling over Ukraine and even into Eastern Europe.”
McConnell said in a statement that the Senate must be “prepared to act.”
“America’s sovereignty is being tested here at home, and our credibility is being tested by emboldened adversaries around the world,” McConnell said. “The challenges we face will not resolve themselves, nor will our adversaries wait for America to muster the resolve to meet them.”
