According to their information, this initiative is being pursued by Speaker of the House Mike Johnson and the chairmen of a number of House committees. They hope to get their proposal approved in Congress without worsening relations "with conservatives who are against further funding" for Ukraine.
The project is in its initial stages, and the possibility of allocating a portion of non-military aid as loans is being studied. It is possible that frozen Russian assets will be involved.
