Congressional staffers protest controversial bill for military assistance to Israel
Samantha Elghanayan, an aide to Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) speaks to reporters about the concerns of Congressional staff for a Ceasefire Now about Israel's operation in Rafah and the Israel Security Assistance Support Act, Washington, DC, May 16, 2024. The bill is controversial because it would require the President and executive branch to provide military assistance to Israel, even if the Administration determines that Israel is violating the rights of Palestinians and interfering with humanitarian aid, in contravention of existing law.
