AIPAC Applauds House Armed Services Committee for including Key U.S.-Israel Defense Programs in FY27 NDAA
June 5, 2026
AIPAC applauds the House Armed Services Committee for including Section 224, the United States‑Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative, and other pro‑Israel provisions in its National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2027.
We applaud President Trump and Secretary Rubio for their tireless work with our ally Israel to broker this ceasefire. This historic agreement between Israel and Lebanon makes clear that the obstacle to peace unequivocally remains Hezbollah and its backers in Iran.
Under President Trump's leadership, and through the courageous actions of American servicemembers—including our 13 fallen heroes—and their Israeli counterparts, the senior leadership of a regime that has terrorized the world and its own people met its just demise.
Congress Demonstrates Overwhelming Support for Israel
February 3, 2026
Today, Congress sent a powerful message about the strength and vibrancy of the U.S.-Israel alliance, providing more than $4 billion for vital security assistance and cooperative programs.
This is an extraordinary moment for America, Israel and the world. The enduring partnership between the United States and our ally Israel over the past two years enabled this diplomatic breakthrough and a just conclusion to the terrible war Hamas started on October 7: freeing the hostages, disarming Hamas and removing the terror group from power in Gaza. This peace deal creates a tremendous opportunity to forge a better future for Israelis, Palestinians, and people across the Middle East.
We welcome the announcement today of a plan to end the conflict in Gaza, disarm Hamas, and free the hostages. We appreciate the determined efforts of President Donald Trump and Special Envoy Steve Witkoff to help negotiate this plan together with Israel.
AIPAC Statement on Unilateral Recognition of Palestinian State
September 21, 2025
The unilateral recognition of a Palestinian state today by the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia will make peace and reconciliation even more elusive by rewarding and emboldening Hamas, and those who have done so are now responsible for the repercussions of this irresponsible and malicious action.
The mission of AIPAC is to encourage and persuade the U.S. government to enact specific policies that create a strong, enduring and mutually beneficial relationship with our ally Israel.
