On Tuesday the Republican leader in the Senate, #Mitch #McConnell, told reporters ⭐️Johnson should “let the House speak”. ⭐️

Asked about Republican proposals to offer aid to Ukraine as a loan not a grant,
👉McConnell said it was more important to act quickly.

“The only way to get relief to the #Ukrainians and the #Israelis quickly is ♦️for the House to figure out how to pass the Senate bill,” ♦️he said, adding:

“We’ve got a bill that got 70 votes in the Senate. Give members of the House of Representatives an opportunity to vote on it. That’s the solution.”
