The White House has invited the top four congressional leaders to meet with President Joe Biden on Wednesday to discuss a national security supplemental funding request that has stalled in Congress.

Biden has requested $106 billion, largely for the war in Ukraine but also to provide security assistance for Israel, Taiwan, and the border; however, House opposition to the Ukraine portion has left the entire bill in limbo for months.
