WASHINGTON — The House passed bipartisan legislation Thursday that would provide new aid to Ukraine and impose sanctions against Russia, largely clashing with the Trump administration’s approach to the war.

The 226-195 vote included support for the bill from 18 Republicans, who joined all but one Democrat in approving the measure.

The Ukraine Support Act, sponsored by Rep. Gregory Meeks of New York, the top Democrat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, came to the House floor after enough Republicans crossed the aisle to side with Democrats and circumvent GOP leadership, which had prevented a vote on the legislation.

The bill would authorize $8 billion in Foreign Military Financing loans to Ukraine and NATO allies, as well as more than $1 billion in other funds for Ukraine, Baltic security and Radio Free Europe.

The bill now heads to the Senate, where it faces a steeper uphill climb with Republicans. If passed, it would then need to be signed by President Donald Trump to become law.

The House vote comes a day after four Republicans voted with Democrats to pass a resolution to rebuke the war in Iran. The largely symbolic measure, also introduced by Meeks, directed Trump to remove U.S. forces from Iran unless Congress authorizes it. That came after Republicans rejected three other attempts to pass a war powers resolution this year.
