The legislation would require the Executive Branch to transfer the U.S. foreign assistance that the U.S. Department of State plans to send to Hamas-controlled Gaza and redirect it to resupply Israel’s highly effective missile defense interceptors. U.S. Senator Bill Hagerty (R-Tenn.) led the introduction of the bill. “Israel has the right and the responsibility to defend itself against unconscionable assaults from groups like Hamas and Hezbollah. Our bill would reallocate aid funding that could have ended up in Hamas’s pockets to Israel’s Iron Dome air defense system — the backbone of its missile defense architecture. The United States will stand by our ally,” said Senator Fischer. In addition to Senators Fischer and Hagerty, the legislation is cosponsored by U.S. Senators Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), John Barrasso (R-Wyo.), Thom Tillis (R-N.C.), Katie Britt (R-Ala.), Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.), Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.), and Rick Scott (R-Fla.).
