The House of Representatives has voted to advance a bill blocking the Biden administration from stopping Israel arms shipments that were approved by Congress.
Several House Democrats defied the White House to support a bill rebuking President Biden for withholding offensive aid from Israel on Thursday. The Israel Security Assistance Support Act would condemn the president’s posture on Israel’s Gaza invasion while compelling the Biden administration to expeditiously send any weapons shipments already approved by Congress.
Israel has proven to be a politically fraught topic for the Democratic Party, with a growing number of lawmakers voicing concern about Israel’s invasion of Gaza in response to Hamas’ Oct. 7 terror attack. It's revealed fractures between more moderate and traditional Democrats' views on the U.S.-Israel relationship and progressives who are increasingly critical of those close ties.
