If the President were presented with this bill, he would veto it. – emphasized in the management.
They added that they urge both houses of Congress to “reject this political ploy.”
Instead, they recommend promptly sending Biden a bipartisan draft law to allocate additional funding for national security needs.
As for the document in its current form, the department “strongly opposes” it.
This position is explained there by the fact that the current draft law “does nothing to protect the border,” or to help Kyiv.
