WASHINGTON (Reuters) -U.S. President Joe Biden will release his supplemental funding request next week, White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters at a news briefing on Thursday without giving more details.

A person familiar with the matter previously told Reuters that the Biden administration is planning to ask Congress for additional money for military aid for Israel after Saturday's attack by Hamas militants and for Ukraine, which has been fighting Russia's invasion for 20 months.

Some Republicans have said they would resist efforts to tie aid for Israel to Ukraine aid. Any funding measure must pass the U.S. Senate, led by Biden's fellow Democrats, and the Republican-controlled House, which is facing a leadership crisis that prevents it from passing any measures.

NBC News reported on Wednesday that Biden's funding plan will also include money for Taiwan and the U.S. southern border.

Wrong.
Dems are doing their job of governing and the retrumplican House are still bickering.  Later, retrumplicans will be blaming the Dems again for no progress on spending bills when the gov't shuts down.
because spending has to stop except for Americans needs. inflation still very high and many crisis here in America need to be resolved before paying of Bidens debts
   Then the retrumplican House members should get on with the business of governance.  Or resign and make room for better people.

But nothing for poor people in Chicago.
Illinois is run BY Chicago, nobody else in the state really gets a say because the rest of the state is the minority.  Chicago siphons most of the revenue collected by the state back into itself, so the city's people get aid.
  Chicago accounts for 21% of Illinois' population (not minority) but 77% of GDP.
*  "rest of the state is" NOT "the minority"
