President Biden's request for additional military aid for Ukraine has received little attention and no serious consideration from lawmakers, signaling a shift in U.S. support for the country. While a bipartisan consensus has long existed in Congress for supporting Ukraine, a majority of House Republicans have opposed sending military aid for over a year. Several Republican lawmakers who previously supported funding for Ukraine's war have changed their tone to match President Trump's, suggesting that it is in both Ukraine's and Washington's interest to end the war. The dwindling enthusiasm among Republicans for funding weapons packages that Trump does not appear interested in sending is notable.
