Congress approved a major Ukraine aid package in April 2024 as part of a broader national security funding plan. The House vote showed strong bipartisan support, while also exposing deep divisions among Republicans over continued U.S. assistance to Ukraine.
The Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act provided about $60.8 billion in support tied to Ukraine and the regional response to Russia’s invasion. The House passed the measure by a 311-112 vote, with 101 Republicans joining Democrats in support and 112 Republicans voting against it.
The bill was part of a larger foreign aid package that also included assistance for Israel, Taiwan, and other U.S. security priorities. After months of debate, House leadership brought the measure to the floor, avoiding the need for a discharge petition.
The vote became one of the clearest examples of Congress backing Ukraine despite resistance from a large bloc of House Republicans. It also reflected the broader debate in Washington over how long the United States should continue funding Ukraine’s defense.
