The bill would make across-the-board cuts to humanitarian aid that could impact embassy operations, educational and cultural exchanges, and ongoing support for Palestinian Security Forces. I believe our decisions and policies must be concise and decisive, especially when addressing the actions of the far-right Netanyahu regime. Palestinian people have a right to self-determination and American policy actions should support that goal through thoughtful and deliberate considerations of the path forward for the Israeli and Palestinian people. The Massie amendment was not a genuine step toward lasting peace. I believe Congress should always evaluate how taxpayer dollars are spent and work toward a foreign policy that advances peace, security, and accountability. The Republican proposals before us did not do that. Instead, these sweeping cuts would essentially isolate America from the world.” | 1 | 2026-07-17T07:15:58Z | 2026-07-17T07:17:05Z |
