As the war between Israel and the terrorist group Hamas intensifies, with the Jewish state initiating a ground operation into Hamas-controlled Gaza over the weekend, Congress is divided over whether to intertwine or separate aid to Israel and Ukraine, which is under attack by Russia.
The Biden administration has requested $14.3 billion in additional assistance to Israel and $61.4 billion in supplemental aid to Ukraine. This is part of a supplemental request totaling $105 billion that also includes $850 million in funding for border security and $2 billion for the Indo-Pacific.
