🇺🇸💸 Americans Split Over $95B Aid Bill for Ukraine & Israel

Washington is buzzing after the U.S. Senate approved a $95 billion aid package for Ukraine and Israel this week, but not everyone is cheering. The bill now heads to the House of Representatives, where debates are heating up. 🇺🇸✨

Nick Schaefer, a customs clerk, didn’t mince words: \"I super dislike the U.S. backing Israel in Gaza. They’re rich—let them handle it. We’ve got our own problems here,\" he told CGTN. His sentiment echoes concerns from critics who argue domestic issues like healthcare and inflation should come first. 💬

But freelancer Edgar Costa sees a bigger picture. While unsure if the bill helps everyday Americans, he told CGTN it aligns with \"military interests and the war industry.\" \"Funding these endeavors keeps the machine running,\" he added. 🛠️

As lawmakers clash over priorities, one thing’s clear: Young voters are watching closely. Will global alliances or hometown needs win out? 🤔
