Congress averted a government shutdown by passing a short-term funding bill over the weekend, but the measure <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/congress-ukraine-budget-security-assistance-799067491a1bba9671b4dfdf491d0a8e\">dropped all assistance<\/a> for Ukraine in the battle against Russia.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/c4isrnet\/electronic-warfare\/2023\/09\/13\/electronic-warfare-in-ukraine-informing-us-playbook\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP23150160798590.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Electronic warfare in Ukraine informing US playbook<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">\u201cBoth sides are doing the cat-and-mouse game very, very well,\u201d said Col. Josh Koslov, the commander of the 350th Spectrum Warfare Wing.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pentagon Comptroller Michael McCord told House and Senate leaders there is $1.6 billion left of the $25.9 billion Congress provided to replenish U.S. military stocks that have been flowing to Ukraine. The weapons include millions of rounds of artillery, rockets and missiles <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/russia-ukraine-war-uk-training-9f4bccab73786f8d0a0a7ca615030375\">critical to Ukraine\u2019s counteroffensive<\/a> aimed at taking back territory gained by Russia in the war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, the U.S. has about $5.4 billion left to provide weapons and equipment from its stockpiles. The U.S. would have already run out of that funding if the Pentagon hadn\u2019t realized earlier this year that it had overvalued the equipment it had already sent, freeing up about <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/ukraine-russia-war-weapons-surplus-funding-72eeb6119439146f1939d5b1973a44ef\">$6.2 billion<\/a>. Some of that has been sent in recent months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">McCord said the U.S. has completely run out of long-term funding for Kyiv through the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, which providesmoney to contract for future weapons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe have already been forced to slow down the replenishment of our own forces to hedge against an uncertain funding future,\u201d McCord said in the letter. \u201cFailure to replenish our military services on a timely basis could harm our military\u2019s readiness.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He added that without additional funding now, the U.S. will have to delay or curtail air defense weapons, ammunition, drones and demolition and breaching equipment that are \u201ccritical and urgent now as Russia prepares to conduct a winter offensive.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">President Joe Biden said Sunday that while the aid will keep flowing for now, time is running out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe cannot under any circumstances allow America\u2019s support for Ukraine to be interrupted,\u201d Biden said. \u201cWe have time, not much time, and there\u2019s an overwhelming sense of urgency.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mark Cancian, a senior adviser at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said if the aid doesn\u2019t keep flowing, Ukrainian resistance will begin to weaken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIf there\u2019s no new money, they\u2019re going to start feeling it by Thanksgiving,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The short-term funding bill passed by Congress lasts only until mid-November. And McCord said it would be too risky for the Defense Department to divert money from that temporary funding bill to pay for more aid to Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many lawmakers acknowledge that winning approval for Ukraine assistance in Congress is growing more difficult as the <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/russia-ukraine\">war<\/a> grinds on and resistance to the aid from the Republican hard-right flank gains momentum.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The weapons include millions of rounds of artillery, rockets and missiles critical to Ukraine\u2019s counteroffensive .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":79305,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-nofollow":"","_yoast_wpseo_canonical":"","_acf":"","_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":38,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_smg_distribution_targets":{"10":{"categories":["budget","home","congress"],"primary_category":"budget"}}},"categories":[65,38,60,12,31,15,9,6],"tags":[],"coauthors":[1184,3238],"class_list":["post-27473","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-budget","category-congress","category-contracting","category-govcon","category-home","category-management","category-federal-oversight","category-acquisition"],"acf":{"subheadline":"","legacy_arc_id":"6ZPLLDUSJRGUPHAWAEC5ZD42MY","arc_canonical_url":"\/federal-oversight\/congress\/2023\/10\/03\/pentagon-warns-congress-its-running-low-on-money-to-replenish-weapons\/","remove_feature_photo":false,"is_sponsored":false,"subtype":"","redirect_url":"","disable_inline_ads":false,"native_logo_pretext":"Presented By:"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v28.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Pentagon warns Congress it\u2019s running low on money to replenish weapons - Federal Times<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The weapons include millions of rounds of artillery, rockets and missiles critical to Ukraine\u2019s counteroffensive .\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Pentagon warns Congress it\u2019s running low on money to replenish weapons\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The weapons include millions of rounds of artillery, rockets and missiles critical to Ukraine\u2019s counteroffensive .\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/federaltimes\/congress\/2023\/10\/03\/pentagon-warns-congress-its-running-low-on-money-to-replenish-weapons\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Federal Times\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2023-10-03T15:07:44+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2026-08-08T05:05:23+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Lolita C.
