Don’t waste the final $6 billion on Ukraine.
Billions of dollars allocated for Ukraine will expire at the end of the month if Congress does not act, according to a warning from the Biden administration.
Some 10% of the $61 billion in funding Congress passed for Ukraine in April remains unspent – and the White House has requested Congress extend its Presidential Drawdown Authority (PDA) to offer aid to Ukraine beyond a Sept. 30 deadline.
“We have $5.9 billion left in Ukraine Presidential Drawdown Authority, all but $100 million of which will expire at the end of the fiscal year,” Pentagon press secretary Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder said Friday.
“The department will continue to provide drawdown packages in the near future and is working with Congress to seek an extension of PDA [presidential drawdown] authorities beyond the end of the fiscal year.”
