House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) scored his first big legislative victory this month, making good on the first promises he made in leadership that he would find a way to send much-needed aid to our allies Israel and Ukraine.

Contrary to what some are saying, Johnson supported more aid for Ukraine from the start of his speakership. Just two days after securing the job, Johnson told Fox News’s Sean Hannity, “We can’t allow Vladimir Putin to prevail in Ukraine because I don’t believe it would stop there, and it would probably encourage and empower China to perhaps make a move on Taiwan.”
