The House has approved billions of dollars in additional U.S.

aid to Ukraine, along with more sanctions on Russia.

The vote was 226 to 195.

President Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson opposed the spending package.

That legislation includes sanctions on Russian banks and oil companies.

It now heads to the Senate, where passage is uncertain.

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky says he wants face-to-face negotiations with Russian President Vladimir Putin about ending the war.

He could also face up to five years in prison.

The Justice Department brought the case against Bolton last October.

The latest numbers on employment in the U.S.
