WASHINGTON (AP) — The House is preparing to vote on approval of $95 billion in foreign aid for Ukraine, Israel and other U.S. allies. Congressional leaders are pushing aside opposition from hard-right conservatives to near the completion of a months-long, grueling effort to renew American support for repelling Russia’s invasion into Ukraine. Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson — putting his job on the line — relied on Democratic support this week to bring to the House floor a series of three votes on the aid packages, as well as a fourth on several other foreign policy proposals. The Senate would still need to approve the House bill in votes expected next week.
