Majority of Republicans vote down Greene's anti-Ukraine aid proposal
A majority of Republicans joined with Democrats on Thursday to vote down Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greenes (R-Ga.) amendment to the annual Defense bill that called for preventing any funds in the legislation from going toward assistance for Ukraine.
The chamber voted 74-343 on Greenes measure for the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), with all support coming from Republicans. Most Republicans 138 of them voted no.
The amendment specifically said None of the funds made available by this Act may be used for assistance to Ukraine. House Armed Services Committee Chair Mike Rogers (R-Ala.), however, took issue with the measure, noting that the NDAA does not appropriate any funds for Ukraine.
He did note that the amendment would cut off funding to maintain the presence of Marines at the U.S. Embassy in Kyiv and that it would prevent the Department of Defense (DOD) from being able to monitor U.S. weapons systems already in Ukraine, urging members to vote against it.
