The Biden administration wants to provide Israel and Ukraine with assistance as part of a $105 billion national security package

As part of a package to address “the global humanitarian impacts of Russia’s brutal invasion of Ukraine and of Hamas’ horrific attacks on Israel, including by extending humanitarian assistance to civilians in Gaza,” the Biden administration is requesting more than $105 billion from Congress.

Besides $61.4 billion for Ukraine and $14.3 billion for Israel, Office of Management and Budget Director Shalanda Young wrote to Speaker Pro Tempore Patrick McHenry that the funding request includes $9.15 billion for humanitarian aid, $7.4 billion for Taiwan and the Indo-Pacific region, and $13.6 billion for US-Mexico border security.

On Thursday, President Joe Biden called the funding request “an inflection point” in American history in a primetime Oval Office address.

“History has taught us that when terrorists don’t pay a price for their terror, when dictators don’t pay a price for their aggression, they cause more chaos and death and more destruction. According to Biden, “If we don’t stop Putin’s appetite for power and control in Ukraine, he won’t limit himself just to Ukraine.”

The administration still has trouble selling it to the American public, where support for Ukraine has lagged as the war has continued, and to Congress, where the House of Representatives is still bickering over the Speaker's gavel.

Since Senate Republicans want significant border policy changes, the package will likely need to be negotiated. You could also split it into bills.

Nat. Sec. Jake Sullivan told reporters Friday that the budget request “invests in America as a critical component of President Biden’s foreign policy for the middle class – it will allow us to have more weapons and equipment that defend America to be made in America.”
