Muslim voters and organizations had heavy criticism for President Biden after the House passed legislation providing $26 billion in military funding for Israel.
President Biden is facing heavy pushback from Muslim voters and organizations after the House passed $26 billion in funding for Israel with his blessing Saturday.
The bill also includes funding for Ukraine and Taiwan, and Biden said he would sign it as soon as it reaches his desk. U.S. Islamic organizers have been attacking Biden’s administration for months over its continued support for Israel, and some say Biden signing this latest legislation would be the last straw.
„That heartless decision could mark the point of no return for what remains of the White House’s relationship with the American Muslim community and other Americans opposed to the genocide in Gaza,“ Council on American-Islamic Relations‘ government affairs director Robert McCaw told NBC News.
