A group of House Democrats is calling on Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) to include humanitarian assistance in a foreign aid package that is expected to address funding for Ukraine, Israel and the Indo-Pacific.
In a letter to Johnson sent Tuesday and obtained by The Hill, the Democrats asked Johnson to include $9.16 billion in global humanitarian assistance in any potential aid package, a figure slightly higher than what was included in a national security supplemental aid package the Senate passed in February. Johnson has refused to take up the Senate package.
The letter was first reported by Axios.
Democrats point to the humanitarian crisis in Gaza as one of the most pressing concerns for the U.S. to address, but also ask for funding to help provide aid to Ukraine, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Lebanon, Sudan, Haiti and Venezuela.

“9 billion as foreign aid to gaza? These people are insane”
Extreme evil often comes off as merely “insane”. But what they really are is a zillion times worse. They know exactly what they’re doing... why they’re doing it... and who/what they’re doing it for.
But nothing for the disaster that is US cities, and street people.
THe whacko leftists and the AOC squad want to sneak in ordnance as humanitarian aid.
Nethanyahu knows it, he has been fighting these Hamas bastids most of his life.
NO AID TO GAZA........none.....unless fully inspected by the IDF with the right to unilateraly withold ANY of it or distribute it.
Gaza is now a part of Israel proper.The two nation expreriment failed miserably.
Aid toIsrael, aid to Gaza, got to keep the war going.
Better yet, cancel all aid.
