Dear Friend of Israel,
I want to be sure you saw the email from AIPAC President Betsy Berns-Korn last week highlighting the important action Congress just took in support of Israel's security.
As you can see below, more than 75 percent of the House signed a bipartisan letter strongly supporting full U.S. security assistance to Israel and clearly opposing new cuts or conditions to America's aid.
This action is especially timely given the introduction of a new anti-Israel bill that would condition aid, threaten Israel’s security, and reward Palestinian leaders for boycotting direct negotiations with Israel.
But there is much more work to be done, as Israel continues to face dangers on all fronts and some here in America take actions that would risk Israel’s safety.

important bipartisan letter to:
- Strongly support full U.S. security assistance to Israel as “a vital and cost-effective expenditure which advances important U.S. national security interests.”
- Explicitly highlight the growing threats facing America and Israel, and the importance of a strong U.S.-Israel partnership to combat these threats.
- Clearly oppose new cuts or conditions to America’s security assistance commitment to Israel.Why it matters: Every year, Congress must appropriate the vital security assistance Israel needs to defend itself, by itself. This letter sends an important message to the Appropriations Committee leadership that bipartisan majorities support continued security assistance to Israel without added conditions.
Are cuts to aid a concern? Yes. Some in Congress are calling to add new conditions on aid to Israel. Introduced last week by Rep. Betty McCollum, a

new anti-Israel bill would create new rules and restrictions just for Israel, threaten Israel’s security, and reward Palestinian leaders for boycotting direct negotiations with Israel.
