WASHINGTON, D.C. — Tuesday, July 19, Congressman August Pfluger (TX-11)’s resolution supporting the State of Israel passed the U.S. House of Representatives. The resolution clearly states that: The State of Israel is not a racist or apartheid state; Congress rejects all forms of antisemitism and xenophobia; and the United States will always be a staunch partner and supporter of Israel. Senator Tom Cotton introduced companion legislation in the Senate.
“Israel is our most important partner in the Middle East,” said Congressman Pfluger. “As Congress welcomes Israeli President Herzog, we affirm that Congress stands with Israel and unequivocally supports our Jewish communities. I am extremely disappointed that Members of the Democrat party refused to vote against antisemitism and affirm that Israel is not a racist state. I would like to thank Senator Cotton for his partnership on this effort and encourage the Senate to immediately take up the measure and deliver support from both Houses of Congress.”
