The House Rules Committee has advanced Speaker Mike Johnson's substantial foreign aid package, totaling approximately $95.3 billion, to the House floor for debate. The committee approved the rule governing the debate parameters with a vote of 9-3. This bipartisan move saw four Democrats and five Republicans voting in favor, while Republican Representatives Thomas Massie, Ralph Norman, and Chip Roy opposed the measure. The package includes various elements such as the REPO Act and a TikTok ban but notably excludes provisions for U.S. border support. In a rare bipartisan move, 165 Democrats and 151 Republicans voted to prevent the package from being blocked, setting the stage for the full House vote scheduled early Saturday afternoon.
