House Democrats split on Israel aid vote amid internal party pressure

House Democratic leaders are divided on a vote concerning U.S. aid to Israel, with Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries planning to vote against an amendment to cut off aid, while Minority Whip Katherine Clark intends to vote for it.

The amendment, proposed by Rep. Thomas Massie, would block all foreign aid to Israel, including humanitarian funding, which Clark argues is not the intended focus of the debate. AI
