"House Struggles to Pass Israel Aid Bill Amid Partisan Divide"

The House GOP failed to pass a bill providing military aid to Israel, as the impasse over addressing national security concerns continues. The measure, which required a two-thirds majority to pass, was pitched as a GOP counteroffer to a more comprehensive Senate bill. The impasse also extends to funding for Ukraine, Taiwan, and U.S. border security. Despite strong support for Israel, the stand-alone House bill faced criticism from Democrats and uncertainty looms over the path ahead for funding President Biden’s national security priorities.
