During a time of increasingly divisive politics, you helped engage Congress and ensure strong bipartisan support to:
Keep Israel safe from terrorist rockets: When terrorists fired 1,100 rockets at Israel over three days in August, Iron Dome saved countless lives by intercepting rockets before they could strike Israeli communities. Your support helped ensure Congress approved $1 billion to replenish this vital missile defense system.
Fund vital U.S. security aid to Israel without added conditions: This year, Congress allocated a record setting $4.8 billion in security and missile defense funding for Israel. These funds are critical to ensuring that Israel is able to defend itself, by itself, in a dangerous region.
Stand with Israel against biased attacks at the United Nations: More than two-thirds of the Senate supported a bipartisan campaign to defend Israel from discriminatory treatment at the U.N. Human Rights Council.
Pass the Israel Relations Normalization Act: This bipartisan bill supports expanding recent peace and normalization agreements between Israel and the UAE, Bahrain, Sudan and Morocco.
These efforts are significant. And they are just a few of the important developments you helped advance with your activism and support.
In the year ahead, we must continue work to build meaningful relationships with those who are in a position to shape America’s alliance with Israel and advance policies that help keep our ally safe. And it's your support that helps make that possible, Friend of Israel.
Our final fundraising deadline of 2022 is approaching.
