Golden Pledges to Protect Johnson's Speakership if Foreign Aid Package with Border Funds Brought to Vote
-
Rep. Golden said he would protect Speaker Johnson's gavel if he brings modified $66.32B foreign aid package with border provisions to a vote.
-
Package includes $47B for Ukraine, $10B for Israel, $5B for Indo-Pacific, and $2B for CentCom operations.
-
Bill also reinstates Trump's Remain in Mexico policy and does not include Gaza aid.
-
Golden urged colleagues to back the package in a Dear Colleague letter with Rep. Fitzpatrick.

Golden's office confirmed he would oppose a motion to vacate if Johnson moves bill forward, funds government, and secures border.
