Summary
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is letting Democrats decide for themselves on a controversial amendment that could halt U.S. military aid to Israel, even though he personally plans to vote no. The amendment, proposed by Republican Thomas Massie, seeks to cut off the $3.3 billion annual funding, which Jeffries warns could disrupt humanitarian aid and peace efforts for Palestinians—and weaken U.S. counterterrorism efforts against Hamas and Hezbollah. He accuses GOP leaders of weaponizing the vote to stir party division. While open to phasing out direct aid after 2028, Jeffries criticizes Netanyahu’s government for damaging Israel’s global standing and reaffirms support for a two-state solution, illegal settlement restrictions, Hamas disarmament, and Gaza reconstruction.
