Senate Stand-Off: Partisan Clash Over Immediate Aid to Israel After Iran Attack

Republican Senators Roger Marshall and Marsha Blackburn plan to force votes on stand-alone Israel aid measures in the Senate following Iran's drone attack on Israel. They aim to ask for unanimous consent to vote on two different versions of the aid bill, one including cuts to Biden's IRS expansion and the other without a mechanism to pay for it. Democrats have previously tied Israel aid to Ukraine aid, and the White House has renewed its opposition to a stand-alone bill for Israel.
