US House Passes Resolution In Support Of Israel - Two Minnesota Reps Vote "Present"

As would be expected, Keith Ellison voted present. The U.S. House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed a resolution today supporting Israel in the current violence in the Middle East. The resolution passed 390-5 with 22 voting 'present' and 16 not voting. Six Minnesota representatives voted for the measure. Reps. Keith Ellison and Betty McCollum voted 'present'. The U.S. Senate passed the resolution yesterday by a voice vote. Ellison did not release a statement in regards to the vote, but put out a strong statement Dec. 31[link] calling for an end to the violence. He also spoke on Al Jazeera about Gaza[link]. McCollum released a statement about the resolution today, citing concerns that it didn't order for an immediate cease fire in Gaza. Here is what she said on the House floor: Madam Speaker, the resolution before the House today, H. Res. 34, justifies Israel's bombardment of the citizens of Gaza, sanctions the incursion of Israeli troops into Gaza to clear this occupied territory of Hamas fighters regardless of the human cost, and calls for "supporting the Israeli-Palestinian peace process" while innocent Palestinian women and children are being killed in Gaza. more...

Nays: Kucinich, Moore (WI). Paul, Rahall and Waters

Voting Present: Abercrombie, Blumenauer, DeFazio, Dingell, Edward(MD,) Ellison, Farr and Grijalva.

  • Israel has every right to defend itself, but the American tax-payer has the right not to be expected to subsidize Natantahu's criminal exploits against the Palestinians. Is there nobody in Washington who Isn't owned by the AIPAC? Arresting the AIPAC for treason would serve America's interests.

  • Jane. Try showing a little loyalty to the USA, the nation that you allegedly represent.

  • @epmer31 AIPAC should have registered as a foreign agency just as JFK demanded.

  • God Bless Israel, God Bless America

  • PEOPLE WHO HATE ISRAEL ARE DUMB SHITS THE LOWEST PILES OF FILTH THAT EXIST!

  • news flash you evil zionists they will never surrender your day will come and you will be punished and when your unlawful occupation ends the people will rebuild on your evil bones.

  • I disagree with these jewish congressional members. If Israel is more important to them than their own country then let them move to Israel and joing the fight. Please check who your voting for the next time. STOP the flow of US Tax dollars to Israel. I'd rather our tax dollars go to aid to the Palestinian people to help rebuild their cities, feed their people and provide medical care to those injured by the IDF. This may start to repair the damage our support for Israel has caused.
