Lawmakers are discussing whether to put conditions on the U.S. aid to Israel as it battles Hamas, amidst mounting calls for a cease-fire and concerns about the death toll of Palestinian civilians.
As lawmakers return to Washington this week with the fate of President Joe Biden ’s more than $100 billion national security package still uncertain, there is a growing conversation over whether to put conditions on the U.S. aid it includes for Israel as it battles Hamas .
The debate – particularly on the Democratic side – comes amid mounting calls from some, both at home and abroad, for a full cease-fire over concerns about the death toll of Palestinian civilians and the humanitarian situation in Gaza since the Oct. 7 attack in which Hamas killed around 1,200 Israelis. The topic, which has divided some in the Democratic party, has led to protests across the country, including one in front of the Democratic National Committee
