President Joe Biden has asked for yet another massive emergency aid package for Ukraine.
This one, to the tune of $37 billion.
In addition to the newest Ukraine aid package, Biden is seeking about $9B in COVID funds to plan for an expected Winter surge.
Federal funding expires in mid-December. The Ukraine and COVID aid will be part of the package to fund the government through the end of September 2023.
The proposed aid package includes:
- $21.7B in the military, intelligence, and defense spending
- $14.5B in humanitarian support
- $900 million for healthcare and support services for Ukrainian people living in the US
- $626 million for nuclear security support to Ukraine, plus funds to aid in modernizing the Strategic Petroleum Reserve
I’m not a math major but wouldn’t $37 Billion end world hunger? Why do we always give money to non-American citizens?
