House Democrats displeased by Netanyahu joint session address: 'This is a terrible time'

House Democrats are displeased that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will travel to the United States to deliver an address at a joint session of Congress, with some arguing it is a bad time for him to come while a ceasefire is on the table.

Congressional leaders on both sides of the aisle invited Netanyahu on Friday last week to Capitol Hill, a move that is already sowing divisions between Republicans and Democrats and within the Democratic conference itself.
