House Republicans are considering whether to invite Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to address a joint session of Congress as tensions persist on Capitol Hill on whether to provide foreign aid amid its war against Hamas.
In a closed-door meeting on Wednesday morning, Republican lawmakers discussed the possibility of inviting the prime minister to speak with Congress, a source familiar confirmed to the Washington Examiner. The consideration comes after House Republicans rebuked Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) for his remarks last week suggesting Israel should hold new leadership elections.
