It’s been one month since the attack on Israel, but Washington
has yet to deliver an aid package to its closest ally. The reason
has to do with a different ally, in a different war: Speaker Mike
Johnson has opposed continued funding for Ukraine, and wants the
issue separated from aid to Israel, setting up a clash between
the House and Senate.

Catie Edmondson, who covers Congress for The Times, discusses the
battle within the Republican Party over whether to keep funding
Ukraine.

Guest: Catie Edmondson, a congressional correspondent for The New
York Times.

Background reading:

The Republican-led House approved $14.3 billion for Israel’s
war with Hamas, but no further funding for Ukraine.

Speaker Johnson’s bill put the House on a collision course
with the Senate.
