House Speaker Mike Johnson criticized the $95 billion foreign aid package in the Democrat-controlled Senate, expressing concerns about the lack of “real” border security provisions.

Johnson emphasized the need for addressing the ongoing border crisis and stated that the House would continue working on border policy changes independently.

The foreign aid package, which includes funds for Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan, and humanitarian aid, has faced opposition from some Republicans seeking to add border provisions.

Former President Donald Trump has urged senators to reject foreign aid unless approved as a loan.

Johnson highlighted the House’s efforts to tackle the border crisis and criticized the Senate’s dismissal of border security bills.

The exchange between Johnson and Senate negotiator Chris Murphy reflected the ongoing disagreement over the inclusion of border provisions in the foreign aid package.
