Congress gets back to work on Ukraine, Israel funding with divide on border security posing biggest roadblock


THE BORDER SECURITY BARRIER: Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has announced he hopes to hold a vote on President Joe Biden’s $105 billion emergency supplemental budget request a week from today. Democrats stand ready to work on common-sense solutions to address immigration, but purely partisan hard-right demands, like those in H.R. “I think it's absolutely essential to get aid to Ukraine,” said Buck, who has announced he won’t be running for reelection. And so, to expect that the Democrats help us find ways to pay for the Israel aid and the Ukraine aid, I think, is absolutely fair.
