America never asked to be the Leader of the Free World — we earned it in the wake of World War II. For 80 years, great American leaders have understood that we need not choose between leading on the global stage and solving problems here at home. The truth is that we have done both and must still do both for the security of our country and for the stability of the Free World.

This week, the Senate passed a well-intentioned but flawed bill to rearm Ukraine, resupply Israel, and harden Taiwan. Speaker Mike Johnson has indicated that the House intends to “work its own will” on the bill. House Republicans should work with urgency to find a way forward and refine this timely legislation so critical to our national interest and our allies.
