Multiple senators have proposed passing a bill to fund the proxy war through 2024, which would come with a huge price tag | In the wake of Kevin McCarthy’s ouster as House speaker, pro-proxy war lawmakers in the House and the Senate are mulling ways to authorize more Ukraine aid.  According to Defense News, multiple senators have proposed passing a massive aid package that would fund the proxy war through 2024 so it would not be impacted by next year’s elections. This plan would mean passing significantly more funding than the $24 billion President Biden has requested.  So far, Congress has authorized about $113 billion in spending on the conflict, which has covered about a year and a half of war. On Sunday, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said it would take about “$60 or $70 billion” to get Ukraine through 2024, not the $24 billion.  Sen. Jon Tester (D-MT), chair of the Senate Defense Appropriations Committee, said the package they’re considering would fund the war for 15 months, bringing it into 2025. The package would help the Biden administration’s plans to continue supporting an open-ended conflict.
