US secretary of state Antony Blinken and secretary of defence Lloyd Austin as set to testify before the Senate Appropriations Committee over Joe Biden’s $106 billion supplemental funding request.

It’s thought that most of the money will be going to help Ukraine build out their defence system against Russia, while the rest will be split between Israwl, Indo-Pacific, and border enforcement.

Biden’s hopes that $61 billion of the money, for Ukraine, will be the last time he has to ask before the 2024 election, however, congressional support on the matter is very much divided.
