US Congress may end the support of US President Joe Biden for Ukraine via a $40 billion spending package blocked by Republicans, not in line with the Democrats' out support in the Ukraine proxy war.

The Pentagon said the lethal aid could be stopped by May 19 remarked the Pentagon. It was stressed that Kyiv would have a weapons shortage that would lessen its military capability without the support of the Lower House.

Pentagon Warns of Weapons Shortage in Ukraine

Pentagon spokesman John Kirby spoke last Friday to reporters stating that by the 19th of May, it will begin to affect the continuous flow of weapons if congress stops it, reported RT.

Kirby added that without additional funding, the arms deliveries to Kyiv would not stop on May 20 even though there would still be supplies in the pipeline bought with the approximately $100 million in expenditure authority the Defense department had also left for Ukraine aid.

Furthermore, the earlier arms package has been getting fast to Ukraine. The pace of supplying arms should be as it is not delayed.

The House unanimously approved Washington's latest $40 billion spending package on Tuesday night. However, the Senate failed to pass the legislation in time for the deadline on Thursday, which US Congress can block.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-New York) declined to add language to the aid legislation that requires an inspector general to supervise how the money is spent, and Senator Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) raised objections to unanimous consent.

This provision enables bills with strong bipartisan support to go to a swift vote without debate, noted The Hill.

Schumer chastised Paul for delaying the massive aid package's authorization, asserting that Washington owes Ukraine a "moral responsibility" to aid in the struggle against Russian forces.

Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky), the Senate Minority Leader, also pressed for a rapid vote on the bill, but Paul's arguments intended that passage would be delayed until next week at the soonest.

Senator Paul claimed that Americans are already suffering the consequences of an inflation crisis carried on by excessive deficit spending.

The legislature seems to be focused on compounding the situation by scrambling more money out through the door. He raised objections to the US being singled out for Ukraine by the Biden administration, cited Free Press Kashmir.

The $40 Billion Spending Package Could Be Suspended

Kirby underscored the Pentagon's proposal that fresh Ukraine financing is made available by May in the third week. He also stated that they would keep going to urge the Upper house to respond as quickly as possible so that they don't reach the end of May with no additional authority.

Even though the aid bill received a clear majority of Democratic and 57 Republicans in the House, the vote revealed an increasing GOP split on the issue.

Representative Dan Crenshaw (R-Texas) praised the bill as a way to fund a proxy war against Russia without losing a single American soldier.

Objections from Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Georgia) countered that anti-Russia sanctions only exacerbate a US inflation crisis, and prioritizing aid to Ukraine is distracting from more important domestic issues.

Greene objected, asserting that anti-Russia punishment aggravates the US inflation crisis and that favoring aid to Ukraine is drawing attention away from more urgent domestic issues. She added it made the baby formula crisis worse.

The Pentagon underlined the opposition in the US Congress against the $40 billion spending package would be delay support for Kyiv; despite the rising inflation in the US.
