McConnell calls on Johnson to bring up Ukraine vote

Mitch McConnell urged Speaker Mike Johnson to allow a vote on Ukraine aid in an interview on Tuesday afternoon, though the Senate minority leader said he would not be “so presumptuous as to tell him how to do it.”

“We’ve heard all kinds of rumors about whether the House supports Ukraine or doesn’t. It seems to me that the easy way to solve that would be to vote. And I hope the speaker will find a way to allow the House to work its will on the issue of Ukraine aid and the other parts of the bill as well,” McConnell said.
