Rep. Brian Mast (R-FL) is pushing for an amendment to be added to the supplemental aid package for Israel that requires the aid to get to them within a month.
The House is moving forward on separate aid bills for Ukraine, Israel/Gaza, Taiwan, and a fourth that includes funding for other national security measures instead of doing it all as one, as President Joe Biden’s initial pitch suggested. Biden first asked Congress to pass this legislation in the fall, but Congress, and in particular House Republicans, has been unable to pass it until they were prompted by Iran’s unprecedented attack against Israel last week.
