In a significant bipartisan move, President Joe Biden has signed into law a bill providing billions of dollars in aid to Ukraine for its ongoing war against Russia. The legislation also includes a provision banning TikTok from operating in the United States if its Chinese parent company does not divest the app within a specified time frame. Despite opposition from some Republicans, the bill ultimately passed both the House and Senate, signaling a rare show of unity in Washington.
President Joe Biden has signed a $61 billion aid package for Ukraine, following a hard-fought bipartisan victory in Congress. The bill provides vital support to Ukraine’s defense against Russian aggression. Biden also signed a separate bill banning TikTok in the US unless its Chinese owner divests the app within a year. The legislation is a significant victory for Biden as he seeks reelection and has strengthened his support among young voters.
