Because the Republicans tied aid to Ukraine to a strong border bill.
They tied a border bill to a Ukrainian and Israeli aid package.
Edit to add: Biden failed by going with the Republican narrative about the border. He admitted that there was a "crisis" that needed to be fixed and then failed to pass it, now come election time it is a choice between the Democrat who couldn't pass a border package with the Republican politicians or a Republican who will be able to pass legislation to make the border much worse for people trying to cross.
This is America's fault for destabilizing the South American countries for so long that people who want a safe life have to leave their home countries to take a treacherous journey hoping to live in the USA.
