🗞️ In-depth summary

On Wednesday, Republican Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky was the sole Republican among 215 to vote in favor of an amendment he introduced to H.R. 8595, the National Security, Department of State, and Related Programs Appropriations Act, 2027. This amendment sought to eliminate approximately $3.3 billion in U.S. military aid to Israel. The final vote was 314-104, with Massie joining 103 Democrats. Massie stated, "The tide is changing. Americans want their tax dollars to be spent improving things here at home, not waging war and genocide."

  • The vote coincided with ongoing deliberations for the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which includes a provision co-sponsored by Massie and Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) to merge U.S. and Israeli military intelligence in areas like missile defense, AI, and cybersecurity.
  • AIPAC, the pro-Israel lobby, criticized the amendment as "dangerous" and vowed to support members of Congress who back a strong U.S.-Israel alliance.
  • Rep. Pat Ryan (D-N.Y.), who voted for the amendment, stated, "I just voted to block sending $3.3 billion of our taxpayer dollars to Netanyahu’s government. It’s wrong on every level."
  • Beth Miller, political director of Jewish Voice for Peace Action, called the vote "a seismic shift in U.S. politics," indicating a potential change in the bipartisan consensus on funding Israel.
