Senator Tom Cotton has introduced the RECOGNIZING Judea and Samaria Act, a bill requiring all U.S. government documents to use the term Judea and Samaria instead of "West Bank." This legislation acknowledges the historical and biblical significance of the region, reinforcing the Jewish people’s deep-rooted connection to the land.
At The Yes! Israel Project, we have long championed the importance of using accurate terminology to reflect Israel’s history and sovereignty, and have discussed this with many in Congress. Senator Cotton’s initiative is a significant step forward in our ongoing efforts to educate and advocate for the rightful recognition of Judea and Samaria. It is inspiring to see years of dedicated advocacy bearing fruit and shaping policy on a national level.
