The House of Representatives has passed legislation that would give financial assistance to U.S. partners in the Indo-Pacific, Ukraine, and Israel, as well as a bill that includes measures such as forcing Chinese divestment of TikTok.

This comes as House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) faces growing discontent among conservatives over the package, particularly the billions of dollars in funding for Ukraine and a lack of border security measures.
