However, the decision to pass it as a stand-alone bill avoids that fight and ensures it will arrive at Biden\u2019s desk relatively soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new package contains $11 billion in funding to allow Biden to continue transferring U.S. military equipment to Ukraine through presidential drawdown authority \u2014 his preferred means of quickly providing assistance to the Ukrainian military. Biden only has $100 million left of the $3.5 billion Congress has appropriated for transferring military equipment such as Javelin anti-tank and Stinger anti-air missiles under presidential drawdown authority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The supplemental also includes $8.7 billion to backfill stocks that have already been sent to Ukraine under drawdown authority. The cumulative $19.7 billion in drawdown funding represents a considerable increase over the $10.4 billion in total drawdown authority the White House requested in its initial supplemental.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIn the bipartisan and bicameral negotiations in assembling this package, there was an interest among members in adding additional funding for military and humanitarian assistance,\u201d House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., wrote in a letter to the Democratic caucus. \u201cThe final bill will be consistent with the President\u2019s request, except for additional funding for military and humanitarian aid.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Defense Department\u2019s Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative is also set to get a $6 billion boost to provide equipment, supplies and logistical support to the Ukrainian military after Biden quickly burned through the $300 million Congress provided for the fund in March.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another $3.9 billion will fund U.S. forces stationed in Europe, including the deployment of a Patriot missile battery. The Biden administration has vowed to shore up the troop presence on NATO\u2019s eastern flank following Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWith this aid, the United States is sending a powerful message to the oligarchs in the Kremlin: We remain firm in our belief that Ukrainian freedom will triumph over Russian fascism,\u201d Rep. Donald Norcross, D-N.J., the chairman of the Tactical Air and Land Forces subcommittee, said in a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additionally, the bill will set aside $500 million to replenish the U.S. critical munitions stockpile. The Biden administration has transferred at least 5,500 Javelins and 1,400 Stingers to Ukraine so far \u2014 comprising a respective one-third and one-fourth of U.S. stockpiles for each system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ukraine and NATO\u2019s eastern flank countries would also have access to a combined total $4 billion in Foreign Military Financing \u2014 grants that help<b> <\/b>countries to purchase equipment from U.S. defense manufacturers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the Biden administration\u2019s request, Congress is also allocating $600 million to expedite missile production and expand domestic access to critical minerals via the Defense Production Act. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/industry\/2022\/05\/02\/bidens-javelin-factory-tour-spotlights-struggle-to-backfill-ukraine-munitions\/\" target=\"_blank\">Biden intends to use that Korean War-era law<\/a>, which allows the federal government to direct private companies to prioritize supplying customers critical to U.S. national security, to mitigate some of the supply chain issues that have plagued the defense industrial base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The package also includes $100 million in demining funds <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/pentagon\/2022\/04\/21\/biden-pledges-800-million-in-new-aid-to-ukraine-will-ask-congress-for-more\/\" target=\"_blank\">the Ukrainians have requested<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, the bill requires the inspectors general for the Pentagon and State Department to oversee the Ukraine aid funds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Congress has coalesced around a $40 billion military and humanitarian aid package for Ukraine that the House will vote on tonight \u2013
