WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, Congressman David Rouzer (R-NC) joined House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul (R-TX), Ranking Member Gregory W. Meeks (D-NY), and 390 of their colleagues to introduce a bipartisan resolution making clear the United States stands with Israel and condemns Hamas’ brutal war against her people.

“America should always stand shoulder to shoulder with Israel, our greatest ally in the Middle East.  An attack on Israel is an attack on America.  We should provide every tool they need to defend themselves and their homeland against the evil and brutal Hamas terrorist attacks," said Congressman Rouzer.  "I am proud to be an original cosponsor of this bipartisan resolution to stand strong with the great people of Israel."

“Now is the time to show the world the United States firmly stands with our friend and ally Israel in our condemnation of this heinous attack by Iran-backed terrorists,” said Chairman McCaul. “I expect this bipartisan resolution to be one of the first, if not the first items considered on the floor once we elect a new Speaker. And I expect it to receive overwhelming bipartisan support.” 

“President Biden has committed the United States fully to Israel’s self defense,” said Ranking Member Meeks. “Israel is responding to the Hamas terror organization’s unprecedented attack. The bipartisan resolution will demonstrate this is one issue in which the US House of Representatives is united, and I expect it to pass the House with broad bipartisan support.”
