The privilege of peace is delivered through vigilance, and our military has supported that mission generation after generation. Those in this room know our troops are the greatest force for freedom and liberty the world has ever seen. That priority is why we are here now.

Washington, D.C. – Today, the House of Representatives passed the Israel Security Assistance Support Act to support our great ally and U.S. national security.


May 15, 2024

President Biden has signaled he will defy the will of the People’s House and Congress by conditionally withholding weapons to Israel and asserted he will veto legislation ensuring critical deliveries are made. This is a betrayal of a great ally and signals that the White House will cower to its radical base and terrorist organizations like Hamas. Unlike the Administration, House Republicans will not waver in our ironclad support for Israel.
