House Republicans released the text of three bills Wednesday that would provide aid for Ukraine, Israel and the Indo-Pacific region, with the latter intended to help deter Chinese aggression in the area. The three-part package is similar to a foreign aid bill that passed the Senate in February. Taken together, the House bills add up to about $95 billion in aid – the same amount the Senate bill included – with an adjustment that $10 billion in Ukraine economic assistance is in the form of a repayable loan, CNN has reported. The House is expected to vote on the bills Saturday. President Joe Biden said in a statement Wednesday that he supports the aid package. Here’s what’s included in the bills, according to a summary provided by House Republicans: One of the bills would provide a total of nearly $61 billion to assist Ukraine and others in the region fight Russia – about the same that was included in the Senate bill.
