Johnson says House will consider border bill alongside foreign aid after GOP rebellion threats
Fox News
Speaker Mike Johnson is unveiling a plan to vote on four foreign aid bills and a border security bill.
A fourth bill would combine miscellaneous national security priorities, including the House’s recently passed bill that could pave the way to a TikTok ban and the REPO Act, a bipartisan measure to liquefy seized Russian assets and send that money to Ukraine, as well as "sanctions and other measures to confront Russia, China, and Iran," according to Johnson.

"The Rules Committee will also be posting text on a border security bill that includes the core components of H.R.2," Johnson said. Follow on Twitter at @liz_elkind and send tips to elizabeth.elkind@fox.com
H.R.2 is a comprehensive border security bill passed by House Republicans last year, which includes measures like the Trump administration-era "Remain In Mexico" policy and would expand expulsion authorities for law enforcement at the U.S.-Mexico border. Democrats have panned H.R.2 as a nonstarter.
