Iran’s Saturday missile attack on Israel has reignited urgency for House GOP leaders to consider foreign aid to Ukraine and the Jewish State, with Republicans anticipating a vote on an aid package this week.
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Turner (R‑OH) said in a Sunday interview with NBC News’s Meet the Press that he believes a vote on Ukraine aid will come to the House floor this week, and he expects it to pass.
“Everyone has been very much on this side of understanding that we’re at a critical point.
