Sullivan followed up four days later with a call to Johnson to highlight the measures in place to track aid in Ukraine.
They spoke often with Johnson’s staff, including meetings at the White House and on Capitol Hill.
Meanwhile, White House chief of staff Jeff Zients, Ricchetti and Goff spoke with Schumer and Jeffries and their staff almost daily to strategize on how to push Ukraine aid forward.
Biden and Johnson spoke by phone the next day as the speaker briefed him on his plan to move the aid package forward.
“We discussed the contents of the next US military aid package,” Zelensky said.
