AFPPIX: White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan said on Sunday that the Biden administration hopes to push a new weapons package for Israel and Ukraine through Congress that will be significantly higher than US$2 billion.
Biden has been considering a budget request lumping together aid for Israel, Ukraine and possibly Taiwan and the US southern border to improve the chances of getting it approved amid calls from some Republicans to cut money for Kyiv. How any bill moves through Congress without a House speaker is unclear. House minority leader Hakeem Jeffries suggested on Sunday that Democrats could work with Republicans to nominate a speaker.
It is unclear he has the votes necessary from his own party to get a simple majority in the House, which is narrowly controlled by Republicans. There is little chance any Democrats would back Jordan, a vocal supporter of Trump’s false claims that the 2020 election was marred by widespread fraud.
