Shafaqna English- Nearly half of House Democrats voted to cut off aid to Israel on Wednesday, marking a significant shift in political support for the longtime U.S. ally.
The amendment to a State Department spending bill aimed to eliminate $3.3 billion in funding for Israel. However, thanks to strong Republican backing for the Jewish state, the amendment failed by a vote of 314-104. This vote highlighted a moment of reckoning for House Democrats, who have had to address years of voter dissatisfaction regarding Israel’s actions during the war in Gaza.
