PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA – Once a month in the basement of a minimally marked neighborhood building, an age-spanning group of Ukrainian Americans gather to discuss the typical meeting minutes of most nonprofits: dues, membership, and events. With nearly 800 current members – all of whom must be of Ukrainian descent – the Ukrainian American Citizens Association (UACA), or the Ukie Club, has been a hangout in Philadelphia’s Northern Liberties neighborhood for 115 years. Generations of Ukrainian Americans have grown up in the club's friendly-priced bar and adjacent soccer field. The club – and ...

The proposal passed by a margin of 311 to 112, thanks to the support of Democrats.

U.S. President Joe Biden will focus on support of Ukraine less in his public display during the election campaign, Politico reported on May 2, citing undisclosed official sources close to the White House. The U.S. will hold a presidential election in November, pinning incumbent Biden against the Republican candidate and former president, Donald Trump. After Biden signed the $61 billion foreign aid bill, achieving a major foreign policy win, the president's team plans to make the U.S. commitment to Ukraine's fight against Russia less of a public focus and to address economic issues more, Politi...
