• The House passed a more than $60 billion bill that provides more military aid to Ukraine.
  • It’s part of a larger foreign aid package that’s likely to pass the Senate and be signed into law.
  • 112 Republicans voted it against — the most ever, and a majority of the GOP conference.

Saturday’s vote marked the first time the House had approved billions of dollars in Ukraine aid since December 2022, when Democrats still controlled the chamber.

In the two years since Russia’s invasion, opposition to aiding Ukraine has grown from a fringe position to a majority view among House GOP lawmakers. Many argue the money should be spent domestically or that policy changes at the US-Mexico border should take precedence.

Here are the 112 House Republicans who voted against the bill.

    I never said I’m with them. I’m simply saying that our money shouldn’t be diverted else where when people here are suffering. Don’t put words in my mouth.

      Well, it’s not either/or. The same people that voted against aid to Ukraine are the same people that vote against spending money on the stuff that you wish they’d spend money on. But you’re ignoring all that, so I assume you’re just arguing in bad faith
