This legislation does absolutely nothing to help Israel and is a cynically partisan move by Speaker Johnson and Republicans who spent months blocking a comprehensive security package. There is simply no time for politics when it comes to U.S. foreign policy, our national security interests, and the assistance required to defeat Hamas and support innocent civilians. I remain concerned by President Biden’s intention to delay certain weapons shipments to Israel and the message that sends to Hamas and other Iranian-backed terrorist proxies. America must never neglect our obligation to support our allies in their times of need." In April, Pappas voted to pass H.R. 8034, the Israel Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, which provided $26 billion in funding to support Israel’s war against Hamas, as well as humanitarian relief. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:12:30Z |
