More Alabama-made missiles heading to
Ukraine in aid package, Biden says
The total aid bill approved by Congress is $95.3 billion and includes foreign aid for
Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. “This package is literally an investment not only in
Ukraine’s security, but in Europe’s security and our own security,” Biden said
from the White House. “We are sending Ukraine the equipment from our own
stockpile, then we will replace those stockpiles with new products made by American
companies here in America: Patriot missiles made in Arizona, Javelins made in
Alabama, artillery shells made in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Texas. In other words,
we are helping Ukraine while at the same time investing in our own industrial base,
strengthening our own national security, and supporting jobs in nearly 40 states all
across America.”
