Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA)introducedan amendment to the supplemental funding bill for Ukraine that has raised eyebrows. 

The amendment would require any member of Congress who votes “in favor” to send additional funding to Ukraine to enlist in the Ukrainian military.

“Any Member of Congress who votes in favor of this Act shall be required to conscript in the Ukrainian military,” the amendment to the Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act 2024 reads.

"I mean if you want to fund the war, why don’t you go fight in it," Greene said. "Show your support for Ukraine."

She also called for the development of “space laser technology on the southwest border” as $60.8 billion is earmarked for Ukraine under the spending package. Meanwhile, only $26.4 billion would be sent to Israel— which has been attacked on all fronts in the past several months. 

“Israel has some of the best unmanned defense systems in the world. I’ve previously voted to fund space lasers for Israel’s defense,” Greene said. “America needs to take our national security seriously and deserves the same type of defense for our border that Israel has and proudly uses.”

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) revealed his plan to pass the billion-dollar foreign aid package to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan after months of being stonewalled.

His plan will include all four bills to be put into a single bill before bringing them to the floor for individual votes. Following this, the bills that are passed will be combined into a single piece of legislation and will be voted on in the Senate. 

Greene has been outspoken in his criticism of Johnson’s plan, accusing him of bowing down to the Democratic Party’s demands.
