This week the House is expected to vote on a major annual bill that includes
$3.3 billion in critical security assistance to Israel
Strong provisions blocking funding for anti-Israel international organizations
Millions of dollars for programs that promote peace and cooperation in the Middle East
U.S. security assistance is the most tangible, effective support America provides to Israel. It helps keeps the Jewish state safe, strengthens U.S. national security, and helps promote stability in a volatile region.
These resources aren’t a handout. Most of this assistance is spent here in the United States, creating jobs across the country and bolstering our economy. The equipment Israel buys helps ensure we have a strong and capable ally in the heart of the Middle East. And Israel provides the U.S. with valuable intelligence that protects our homeland and keeps our soldiers safe.
The mission of AIPAC is to encourage and persuade the U.S. government to enact specific policies that create a strong, enduring and mutually beneficial relationship with our ally Israel.
