WASHINGTON - Today, Congressman Jim Costa (CA-21), a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, led a bipartisan, bicameral letter to Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and Office of Management and Budget Director Russell Vought. The lawmakers demanded an explanation for the Administration's delay in executing the $400 million Congress provided for Ukraine security assistance in Fiscal Year 2026 and urged that delivery be accelerated. The effort builds on a similar
letter led earlier this year by Senators Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Chuck Grassley (R-IA).
