WASHINGTON -- After months of political drift, support for Ukraine appears to be regaining momentum in Washington, with lawmakers, administration officials, and Ukrainian diplomats pushing forward on multiple fronts.
At the center of the congressional push is the Ukraine Support Act, legislation that would authorize more than $1 billion in direct security assistance for Kyiv, provide another $8 billion in loans, tighten sanctions on Russia, and limit presidential authority to unilaterally lift existing sanctions.
The bill was stalled for months amid resistance from Republicans in the House of Representatives and uncertainty over President Donald Trump's approach toward Russia and Ukraine.
