Congress is scheduled to reconvene after a two-week recess. House of Representatives’ Speaker Mike Johnson to bring a Senate bill to the house floor includes some $60 billion in funding for Ukraine.I t has been collecting dust for 55 days.

"Johnson claims to support Ukraine," former US Ambassador to Ukraine Steven Pifer wrote in an opinion piece in Washington-based The Hill. "He has multiple paths to make that happen. The strategist also told to “further military aid to Ukraine”& promoted “the money should be spent on Ukraine & border.”

British Foreign Affairs Minister David Cameron is scheduled to visit Washington on April 9 on day House convenes again. His office says Cameron would meet with his counterpart, Antony Blinken, and press the bicameral legislature to approve aid for Ukraine. A meeting is expected with Johnson as well.

"A success for Ukraine and failure for [Kremlin leader Vladimir] Putin are vital for American and European security," Cameron said in a statement. 

While adding that it was paramount for Putin to understand that "aggression doesn't pay."

Republicans in House have a slim two-seat majority who could easily topple Johnson from the speakership, like predecessor Kevin McCarthy.
