AIPAC applauds the House of Representatives for passing critical pro-Israel provisions, including $3.3 billion in security assistance to Israel, in the Fiscal Year 2026 National Security, Department of State, and Related Programs Appropriations Act.The pro-Israel provisions in this bill further reinforce the bipartisan and ironclad support for the U.S.-Israel partnership in Congress. These resources help ensure that our ally can confront shared strategic threats and that America has a strong and capable ally in the heart of the Middle East. The vital security funding in this bill strengthens Israel while bolstering the U.S. economy and creating jobs here at home.In addition to the $3.3 billion in security assistance, the bill also includes: ✅ A complete ban on funding to UNRWA, the Hamas-affiliated U.N. agency in Gaza whose members participated in the October 7th massacre.
So AIPAC is celebrating after helping secure an additional $3.3 billion for Israel in the House bill, while also pushing Congress to fully cut off funding to international bodies investigating Israel’s actions, including the ICC, the International Court of Justice, and the U.N. Commission of Inquiry. The legislation also defunds UNRWA, the U.N. agency responsible for providing aid in Gaza and the West Bank, as well as to Palestinian refugees in Jordan and other countries. Yeah, that's your tax dollars at work.
