Ricketts Condemns Biden-Harris Administration Conditioning Israel Support

October 16, 2024

OMAHA, NE – U.S. Senator Pete Ricketts (R-NE), a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, issued the following statement after the Biden-Harris administration sent a letter to Israel conditioning further arms support:

“I’m disgusted by the Biden-Harris administration’s continued threats to withhold arms from an American ally fighting for its survival. Their appeasement-first foreign policy is undermining Israel and emboldening Iran and its terrorist proxies. The U.S. should be offering unconditional support to Israel in their fight to end Hamas and Hezbollah’s brutality. Anything less than that pushes peace further out of reach.”
