Senate passage is expected this coming week. President Joe Biden has promised to sign the package as soon as he gets it.

About $61 billion for Ukraine and replenishing U.S. weapons stockpiles.
The overall amount provided to Ukraine for the purchase of weapons would be $13.8 billion. Ukraine would receive more than $9 billion of economic assistance in the form of “forgivable loans.”
About $26 billion for supporting Israel and providing humanitarian relief for people in Gaza.
About $4 billion of that would be dedicated to replenishing Israel’s missile defense systems. More than $9 billion of the total would go toward humanitarian assistance in Gaza amid the Israel-Hamas war.
