Senators Join Sanders in Effort to Block $500 Million Arms Sale to Israel
Senator Bernie Sanders filed three joint resolutions of disapproval to stop the sale of over $500 million in weapons to Israel. He argued that American taxpayers should not fund the delivery of 22,000 new bombs to the Netanyahu government amid regional destruction. Sanders stated that these weapons support an illegal war in Gaza and Lebanon. A growing list of Senators has now backed the resolutions to block the arms transfer. This legislative move follows concerns over the humanitarian impact of the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East.
