在參議院達(dá)成暫定移民協(xié)議后，路易斯安那州眾議院議長邁克·約翰遜周六宣布對單獨(dú)的以色列法案進(jìn)行投票。參議院周日公布了兩黨邊境法案文本，該法案將以色列和烏克蘭與一攬子更嚴(yán)格的邊境安全和庇護(hù)法結(jié)合起來。

The standalone Israel bill includes $17.6 billion in military aid to the country "as well as important funding for U.S. Forces in the region," Johnson's office has said. The measure, known as the Israel Security Supplemental Appropriations Act and introduced by Rep. Ken Calvert, R-Calif., does not contain spending offsets that Johnson said Democrats objected to in previous legislation.

"Now more than ever, we must stand firm with Israel," said House Appropriations Committee chair Kay Granger, R-Texas, in a floor speech before the vote. "The bill sends a strong message that the United States supports our great ally."

Early in Johnson's speakership, theHouse passed a billthat would have provided $14.3 billion in aid to Israel but also included IRS cuts, which Senate Democrats and President Joe Biden opposed.

The Biden administration issued a formal veto threat Monday to the standalone Israel aid bill, saying it "strongly opposes" the measure after having worked with a bipartisan group of senators for months to come to an agreement on legislation that aims to secure the border and provide aid to Ukraine and Israel.

"Instead of working in good faith to address the most pressing national security challenges, this bill is another cynical political maneuver," the Office of Management and Budget said in a statement of administration policy.

"The security of Israel should be sacred, not a political game," the OMB statement added. "The Administration strongly opposes this ploy which does nothing to secure the border, does nothing to help the people of Ukraine defend themselves against Putin's aggression, fails to support the security of American synagogues, mosques, and vulnerable places of worship, and denies humanitarian assistance to Palestinian civilians, the majority of whom are women and children."

The Israel aid bill comes as Republican hard-liners try to thwart the $118 billion bipartisan Senate border bill. That measure includes provisions seeking to address record-high crossings at the southern border and contains foreign aid to Israel, Ukraine and Taiwan. Republicans have said they would support foreign aid to those countries if it is tied with new policies restricting U.S. immigration.

But Johnson said after the border bill was unveiled that it"will be dead on arrival"if it reaches the House. The top four House Republican leaders — Johnson, Majority Leader Steve Scalise of Louisiana, Majority Whip Tom Emmer of Minnesota and Republican Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik of New York — have also saidthey oppose the bill"because it fails in every policy area needed to secure our border and would actually incentivize more illegal immigration."

House Democratic leadership came out against the stand-alone Israel bill Tuesday morning. In a letter to caucus members, Democratic leaders said the GOP bill "is not being offered in good faith."

他們說：“相反，這是赤裸裸的、憤世嫉俗的企圖，旨在破壞一項(xiàng)全面的兩黨資助方案的可能性，該方案旨在解決美國在中東、烏克蘭、印太地區(qū)和全世界的國家安全挑戰(zhàn)。”添加。

該法案還遭到了保守派眾議院自由核心小組的反對，該小組批評該法案缺乏通過其他方面的削減來抵消支出的條款。
