I have nothing wrong with individual defense aid bills. It gives each rep the ability to vote on an individual thing, and that is better than “omnibus” bills that want to lump all sorts of things together.

I think yes, aid to Ukraine and Israel should be individual bills, on their own. And a U.S. border bill should be on its own. Let everyone see how each rep stands on each individual issue.

However, on any Ukraine bill, I would like to see an amendment that calls for the cost of it to come out of the trillions in domestic spending that has already been handed to Biden. Biden already has the money, it just needs to be reallocated with no additional spending needed.

You would like to see who would vote. . . .???? Why? Who cares, nothing will happen to a single rep.Not a single rep is at risk of losing reelection of either party this November regardless how they vote on any foreign aid bill. No one cares. Make it 1 big bill with border wall funding at 100 billion with no allowance for any court order restrictio s or presidential EOs. Construction must commence and moneis dispersed in tandem, 1 dollar to Ukraine for each spent on border funding. 2. Each dollar to Uke must be matched simultaneously with a dollar from the EU. Give Uke 100, 200.billion. if you want to “See” how they would vote that is something worth seeing
