Introduction

Introduction

On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, a country that Russia first invaded in 2014.1 In response to Russia's aggression against Ukraine, Congress and the President have enacted multiple measures, including five supplemental appropriations laws providing assistance to Ukraine and other related funding.

This report compiles congressional votes on legislation, including amendments and resolutions, in response to the 2022 Russian war on Ukraine. To identify relevant votes, CRS searched Congress.gov for legislation that (a1) referenced Russia or Ukraine in the bill or amendment text; (b2) received floor votes; and (c3) was either introduced in Congress following the February 24, 2022 Russian invasion or was amended in response to that invasion. The following tables include legislation that either references the Russian invasion into Ukraine, introduces sanctions or other actions against Russia and countries assisting Russia following the invasion, or provides assistance and support to Ukraine or other countries in response to the invasion. Legislation that more generally references either country, but is unrelated to responding to the conflict, was excluded.

In particular, the report focuses on floor votes related to the passage of bills, resolving of differences, and conference reports. It also includes votes on amendments introduced in response to Russia's actions against Ukraine. Procedural votes (e.g., votes to recommit the bill to a committee or cloture votes) are not included in the report.2 This report does not provide information on votes that were taken in House or Senate committees.

This report includes three tables:

Table 1 provides congressional votes related to funding and aid-related legislation for Ukraine, including votes on selected amendments, House and Senate passage votes, and votes on any final version approved in identical form by both the House and Senate, including conference reports and amendments between the chambers.

Table 2 provides congressional votes on nonfundingnon-funding legislation introduced in response to Russia's war in Ukraine, including votes on relevant amendments, House and Senate passage votes, and votes on any final version approved in identical form by both the House and Senate, including conference reports and amendments between the chambers.

Table 3 provides congressional votes on simple and concurrent resolutions introduced in response to Russia's war in Ukraine, including approval in the House and Senate.

Each table includes the number of the bill or amendment, title of the legislation, and a brief description of the legislation. Each table also provides the date, vote type (voice or roll call), and, if by-roll call, the assigned number and result for each major vote. The laws, bills, and resolutions below are listed in the chronological order in which the votes were held. Links to the roll call votes are embedded in the tables below. These links include each Member's yea, nay, or present vote. In some cases, House or Senate votes are voice votes, or an action was taken by unanimous consent, and thus no roll call vote exists.3 More complete bill information is available on Congress.gov.

The Department of Defense (DOD) is "using a secondary Department of War designation," under Executive Order 14347 dated September 5, 2025.4 The Executive Order states that, "(s)tatutory references to the Department of Defense, Secretary of Defense, and subordinate officers and components shall remain controlling until changed subsequently by the law."

This report is current through January 23, 2026.

Some of the supplemental appropriations legislation on Ukraine was part of either consolidated or continuing appropriations acts, and such votes were taken on the legislation itself, and not specific to Ukraine. a. H.R. 2471 was first introduced as "An Act to measure the progress of post-disaster recovery and efforts to address corruption, governance, rule of law, and media freedoms in Haiti." On March 9, 2022, the House passed H.Res. 973, which provided for consideration of H.R. 2471 (Consolidated Appropriations Act,

    2022), H.J.Res. 75 (Continuing FY2022 appropriations), H.R. 6968 (Ending Importation of Russian Oil Act), and H.R. 7007 (COVID Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2022), by 218-204 (Roll no. 64). Prior votes on H.R. 2471 that were unrelated to appropriations and Ukraine are not included in the table.

    b. The Ukraine Democracy Defense Lend-Lease Act of 2022 expired on September 30, 2023.

    c. "U.S. security assistance includes the Department of Defense's Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI; P.L. 114-92, §1250), which is intended to support Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity and to help Ukraine defend against further aggression." For more information on the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, see CRS Report R45008, Ukraine: Background, Conflict with Russia, and U.S. Policy, by Cory Welt, and CRS In Focus IF12040, U.S. Security Assistance to Ukraine, by Christina L.

    d. P.L. 117-263, Title LV, Subtitle G, Section 5590, Imposition of sanctions with respect to the sale, supply, or transfer of gold to or from Russia, requires the President to send a report to Congress identifying foreign persons that participate in the sale, supply, or transfer of gold directly, or indirectly, to or from the Russian Federation, and impose sanctions on them.

    f. P.L. 117-328, Division M, the "Additional Ukraine Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2023" was first approved in the Senate as part of an amendment to a House amendment to a Senate amendment to H.R. 2617. . H.R. 2617, as initially passed by the House, was an unrelated bill. Senate amendments to the House bill were also unrelated. The House amendment to a Senate amendment contained appropriations, but not for Ukraine. Votes on those versions of legislation are therefore not included in the table.

    g. The House-passed FY2024 NDAA included Section 1224, which would have extended the Ukraine Democracy Defense Lend-Lease Act of 2022 (which had expired on September 30, 2023). However, Section 1224 was removed during conference proceedings. Per H.Rept. 118-301, the conference report to the FY2024 NDAA, the "House bill contained a provision (sec. §1224) that would extend the Ukraine Democracy Defense Lend-Lease Act of 2022 (P.L. 117-118) through fiscal year 2024…. The Senate amendment contained no similar provision. The House recedes.

    h. Section 8104, Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, was removed from the House-passed version of H.R. 4365. Votes for the legislation are not included in the table.

    i. The House passed the bill, originally, as the RELIEVE Act (Removing Extraneous Loopholes Insuring Every Veteran Emergency Act). S.Amdt. 1388 to H.R. 815 was an amendment in the nature of a substitute, replacing the original text with the National Security Act, 2024. Prior votes unrelated to the National Security Act, 2024, are not included in the table.

    j. S.Amdt. 1388 to H.R. 815 was an amendment in the nature of a substitute, replacing the original text of the RELIEVE Act (Removing Extraneous Loopholes Insuring Every Veteran Emergency Act) with the National Security Act, 2024. S.Amdt. 1388 to H.R. 815 included provisions related to Ukraine funding.

    k. k. As the Senate committee-reported bill contained no similar provisions, the final public law (P.L. 118-159) did not include the House provisions. l. H.R. 8774 did not include any appropriations or relevant provisions on Ukraine. Votes for the legislation are not included in the table.
