About this sermon
After months of false starts and setbacks on Capitol Hill, Speaker Mike Johnson unveiled an outline of his plan to move foreign aid through the US House, but already it's getting a lukewarm reception. On paper, the speaker's plan makes sense. He's decided to hold 4 separate votes on what's expected to be tens of billions of US tax dollars going to Israel, Ukraine and Taiwan; a 4th bill to cover security issues, such as a TikTok ban, economic and humanitarian loans to Ukraine, and the Repo Act, which would go after Russian oligarch money. Representative Johnson says, "There was a consensus recognized in my view from all of the opinions that were shared, that it really was the will of my colleagues to vote on these bills independently." But Republican Congressman Bob Good and other Freedom Caucus members are already speaking out, saying securing the border must be included.
