Details
Today, U.S. President Joe Biden said he would immediately sign the bill passed by the Senate to restore military aid to Ukraine as soon as possible.
I will sign this bill and address the American people as soon as it reaches my desk tomorrow so that we can begin sending weapons and equipment to Ukraine this week. The need is urgent: for Ukraine, which faces relentless bombardment from Russia; for Israel, which has just faced unprecedented attacks from Iran; for refugees and those affected by conflicts and natural disasters around the world, including in Gaza, Sudan, and Haiti; and for our partners who seek security and stability in the Indo-Pacific region. I want to thank Leader Schumer, Leader McConnell, and all the bipartisan lawmakers in the Senate who voted in favor of this bill. This important legislation will make our country and the world safer as we support our friends who are defending themselves against terrorists like Hamas and tyrants like Putin
