  • The House of Representatives approved a bill to provide military aid to Israel and humanitarian aid to Gaza.
  • It is part of a package that includes aid to Ukraine and is likely to be approved by the Senate next week.
  • Dozens of progressive Democrats — and some hard-right Republicans — voted against it.

The House of Representatives on Saturday approved a bill that includes more than $14 billion in military aid to Israel and more than $9 billion in humanitarian aid, most of which will go to Gaza.

The bill was approved by a vote of 366 to 58, but dozens of progressive Democrats — and a group of hard-right Republicans — voted against it.

Under an unorthodox plan from House Speaker Mike Johnson, the bill would be sent to the Senate as part of a package that includes aid for Ukraine and Taiwan and a third bill that would force the sale of TikTok and allow the United States to seize Russian assets. Lawmakers voted individually on each component.

The combined bill closely mirrors the $95.3 billion national security bill the Senate passed in February. Three senators voted against this package regarding aid to Israel.

President Joe Biden has pledged to sign the bill into law after its passage in the Senate in the coming days, a move that could anger the progressive left, which has called on it to take a different approach to the Israeli war in Gaza, where more than 30,000 people live. Palestinians have been killed.

This is not the first time in recent months that Democrats have voted en masse against Israeli aid. They have become more comfortable doing so amid the devastation in Gaza.

In November, all but 12 of them voted against a bill that would have tied Israeli aid to cuts to the Internal Revenue Service, which was unacceptable to Democrats. In February, only 46 Democrats voted for an Israel aid bill that did not include those cuts, with Democrats largely taking the position that they wanted to see aid to Ukraine paired with aid to Israel.

Fourteen Republican members of the House of Representatives voted against the latest aid bill for Israel last February, with many of them citing the cost of the aid.

But Saturday's vote was different — this bill is certain to be signed into law, and the large number of Democrats who voted against Israeli aid shows how quickly the issue has shifted in recent months.

“Giving the Netanyahu government more offensive weapons at this point is tantamount to condoning the complete destruction of Gaza we have witnessed over the past seven months and risks fueling a deadly regional war,” said Rep. Becca Balint of Vermont, a progressive Jewish Democrat. This was stated in a statement prior to the vote. He added, “The United States cannot continue to support an extremist attack that has caused unimaginable suffering to the Palestinian people.”

  • Andy Biggs from Arizona
