US House passes bill on aid to Israel, but not Ukraine
The Republican-led House of Representatives approved a $14.3 billion military aid measure for Israel without mentioning Ukraine, despite a veto threat from President Biden.
Besides no aid for Kiev, the legislation also includes cuts to the Internal Revenue Service’s tax enforcement initiative – part of the Inflation Reduction Act that is a key part of Biden’s agenda.
The bulk of the money in the GOP bill would go to help Israel replenish and bulk up its weapons systems, including $4 billion for the Iron Dome and David’s Sling missile defense systems. The measure also includes $200 million for the protection of US personnel and evacuation of American citizens.
Notably, it completely omits humanitarian aid for Gaza.
