Johnson can put a ‘W’ on the board by passing Ukraine aid

Published April 4, 2024 12:00am ET



House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) does not have many GOP accomplishments to show for his six months in office. However, he can change all that this month by following through on his proposal to deliver aid to Ukraine and reverse one of President Joe Biden‘s harmful anti-energy policies.

A majority of the House Republican caucus wants to send Ukraine the weapons and ammunition it needs to fight successfully against Russia. This would be a national security win for America. The front lines are at a standstill, but since the war began, Ukrainian forces have liberated the city of Kherson, kept control of Odesa, and destroyed much of Russia’s Black Sea Fleet.
