REP LIEU STATEMENT ON ISRAEL SUPPLEMENTAL VOTE

February 6, 2024

WASHINGTON - Today, Congressman Ted W. Lieu (D-Los Angeles County) issued the following statement following the House's vote on Israel supplemental funding.

“I support humanitarian assistance for civilians in Gaza. I support aid for Ukraine. I support aid for the Indo-Pacific. And I support aid for Israel. Today I was presented with the opportunity to support one of these priorities and I voted in favor of doing so. I believe Congress should pass President Biden’s original supplemental funding request to support all of these vital US national security needs. I call on congressional Republicans to stop playing political games and allow for up-or-down votes in the House and Senate on all critical funding priorities.”
