"Fetterman and Manchin Refuse Support for Two-State Solution Resolution on Israel"

Democratic Sen. Brian Schatz introduced an amendment affirming US support for a two-state solution to the Israel-Palestine conflict, with nearly every Democratic senator signing on except for Sens. John Fetterman and Joe Manchin. Fetterman's spokesman emphasized his support for a two-state solution but with a precondition of Hamas's destruction, while Manchin conditioned his support on Palestinian recognition of Israel. The amendment comes in response to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's comments, and Schatz highlighted the need for humanitarian assistance amid the conflict. No Republican senators signed onto the amendment.
