‘We’re Out of Money’ — Joe Biden Asks for $33 Billion for Ukraine After Congress Passed $13.6 Billion in March

President Joe Biden announced a significantly bigger budget request to Congress for more funding for Ukraine on Monday, as Russia’s invasion of the country continues.

“Basically, we’re out of money,” Biden admitted, after a month of billions in government spending on military equipment and humanitarian aid to Ukraine.

The president called for Congress to send him an additional $33 billion in funds for Ukraine, despite the $13.6 billion funding bill passed in March.
