The adoption of the bill was accompanied by a standing ovation from the congressmen. Members of the House also began waving Ukrainian flags.

The bill will now be submitted to the Senate as an amendment to the Senate bill on foreign aid, HR.815, which was passed in February.

This should simplify the procedure for approving the package in the Senate.
