Expert Insight: Senate Disagreement Imperils Aid to Israel and Ukraine
Senate Republicans and Democrats’ disagreement on border policy persists, jeopardizing the crucial delivery of aid to Israel and Ukraine. One of our 网爆门 faculty experts shared his thoughts on this.聽 is director of the Campbell Public Affairs Institute and a professor of political science at 网爆门鈥檚 Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs.
He writes: “This impasse is yet another example of a long-term trend in congressional politics, to link different issues together for a partisan advantage.聽The debates are almost interchangeable鈥攖he party that wants a particular thing that has more widespread support (aid to Ukraine) argues that it should be considered separately, and the party that’s trying to leverage other, more politically difficult things (border security) wants to join them together.聽Each party has made either argument, depending on the issue.”
