Rep. Thomas Massie’s (R-KY) amendment to cut off U.S. aid to Israel in an annual appropriations bill failed on the House floor.

The amendment failed 314-104, with 215 Republicans and 98 Democrats voting in opposition. In total, 103 Democrats backed cutting aid alongside Massie, the sole Republican yes vote. Rep. Kevin Kiley (I-CA), who caucuses with the GOP, voted against the amendment. Overall, 10 House Democrats voted present.

If it had passed, Massie’s amendment would have struck $3 billion of foreign aid to Israel from the annual National Security, Department of State, and related programs appropriations bill.
