For the first time, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) is hinting at a number of tweaks he would require in order to move a foreign aid bill for Ukraine through the lower chamber. 

In an interview with Fox News on Sunday, Johnson laid out the provisions he would like to see in any emerging aid proposal, which the speaker called “important innovations.” The measures floated by Johnson were related directly and indirectly to the war with Russia, including the idea of restructuring the aid as a loan repayment.
