U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) has joined forces with Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and 46 other Senate colleagues to co-sponsor a resolution that condemns any action by the Biden Administration to withhold or restrict ammunition or weapons for Israel.
"Israel is one of our closest and most important allies," said Senator Tuberville. "We should be consistent in supporting our friend as they fight a war for their survival. What we are seeing from the Biden Administration is the worst kind of betrayal. Saying you support the Jewish people when withholding critical arms and munitions only emboldens the Hamas Terrorists and prolongs the fighting. President Biden needs to stop appeasing the America-hating fringe of the Democrat party for votes in November and release the weapons to Israel."
Joining Senators Tuberville and Graham were Senators John Barrasso (R-WY), Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), John Boozman (R-AR), Mike Braun (R-IN), Katie Britt (R-AL), Ted Budd (R-NC), Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV), Bill Cassidy (R-LA), Susan Collins (R-ME), John Cornyn (R-TX), Tom Cotton (R-AR), Kevin Cramer (R-ND), Mike Crapo (R-ID), Ted Cruz (R-TX), Steve Daines (R-MT), Joni Ernst (R-IA), Deb Fischer (R-NE), Chuck Grassley (R-IA), Bill Hagerty (R-TN), Josh Hawley (R-MO), John Hoeven (R-ND), Cindy Hyde-Smith
(R-MS) Ron Johnson, John Kennedy, James Lankford, Mike Lee, Cynthia Lummis, Roger Marshall, Mitch McConnell, Jerry Moran, Markwayne Mullin, Lisa Murkowski, Pete Ricketts, Jim Risch, Mitt Romney, Mike Rounds, Marco Rubio, Eric Schmitt, Rick Scott, Tim Scott, Dan Sullivan, Thom Tillis, John Thune, J.D. Vance, Roger Wicker and Todd Young.
Senator Tuberville has been vocal about his support for Israel and his concerns about the rise of antisemitism on college campuses. He believes that teachers and professors have a responsibility to provide moral clarity to their students and condemns the Hamas-backed terror attacks on innocent Israeli and American citizens.
Senator Tommy Tuberville represents Alabama in the United States Senate and is a member of the Senate Armed Services, Agriculture, Veterans’ Affairs, and HELP Committees.
