Less than 24 hours after the unveiling of the Senate border-Ukraine package, the deal appears to be on life support amid growing opposition from both Senate and House Republicans.
The details of the package, itself the culmination of months of behind-the-scenes wrangling between Senate Republicans and Democrats, were finally made public the evening of Feb. 4.
These revealed that the package had a top-line cost of $118 billion, including roughly $60 billion for Ukraine. Other expenditures in the package would go toward Israel, Taiwan, and U.S. border security.
