The Senate Amendment to H.J.Res. 76 appropriates $225 million in supplemental emergency funding for the remainder of FY2014, to provide additional funding to Israel for the Iron Dome missile defense system to counter short-range rocket threats. Any funds that remain unobligated at the end of FY2014 will remain available until September 30, 2015.
The bill passed the House, 395-8.
Three of the eight who voted against the bill were Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D, CA-19), Rep. Keith Ellison (D, MN-5) and Rep. Walter Jones (R, NC-3).
All three of those are currently endorsed by J-Street.
Pro-Israel? No.
Pro-peace? No.
J-Street a hypocritical organization that goes out of its way to support those who hate Israel? You betcha.
