The Democrat-led U.S. Senate passed a $95-billion bill containing aid for Ukraine and Israel on Tuesday, sending the measure to the Republican-controlled House of Representatives. This decision has sparked varied reactions among Americans.
Edgar Costa, a freelancer from New York City, expressed concern over the timing and potential political motives behind the bill. \"The $95 billion of aid that the Senate approved for Israel and Ukraine seems to come in a very controversial moment,\" Costa told CGTN, adding that the bill has a political purpose as the presidential election approaches in 2024.
On the other hand, film student Sam Colon voiced his disagreement with the U.S. aid to Israel. \"I think that we've provided plenty of aid, but the government has shown no willingness to exercise any kind of restraint,\" Colon stated.
