Highlights: Speaker of the House Mike Johnson said this. Johnson recalled that most representatives of the Republican Party oppose the bill. The project is not intended to keep the U.S. border secure, he added. Earlier, US senators voted for a bill to provide aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. The bill does not contain provisions to tighten security of the border with Mexico, Johnson said. He emphasized that congressmen will not consider a bill for Ukraine and Israel that does not include provisions to Tighten Security of the Border with Mexico.

No one will be able to force the United States House of Representatives to follow the Senate in passing a bill to help foreign allies, including Ukraine. Speaker of the House Mike Johnson said this.
