The White House will veto the bill on aid to Israel, as it considers it incomplete. This was reported by Reuters.


The Biden administration wants aid to Ukraine and Israel, as well as border security funding, to be included in a single package.


"The administration strongly urges both houses of Congress to reject this political ploy and instead quickly send a bipartisan Emergency National Security Supplemental Appropriations Act to the president's desk," the White House said in a statement.


For several months, the Biden administration has been working with Senate Democrats and Republicans on a bill that combines reforms to the US immigration system, additional funds for border security, and billions of dollars in aid to Ukraine, Israel, and partners in the Indo-Pacific region.


The $118 billion spending measure will also provide humanitarian assistance to civilians affected by global conflicts.


"The Administration strongly opposes this measure, which does nothing to secure the border, does nothing to help the people of Ukraine defend themselves against Putin's aggression, fails to support the security of American synagogues, mosques, and vulnerable places of worship, and denies humanitarian assistance to Palestinian civilians, the majority of whom are women and children," the statement said.
