WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) released the following statement after voting on the Senate floor for Joint Resolutions of Disapproval concerning sales of weapons to Israel:

“The starvation and suffering that we are watching unfold in Gaza is unimaginable and heartbreaking. There is simply no way to defend it, and it has to stop.

“I have been crystal clear since the day of Hamas’ horrific terrorist attack on Israel that they have the right to defend themselves, respond, and bring the hostages home. I still believe that. I also firmly believe that this Netanyahu government must protect innocent Palestinian families and prevent children from starving – and right now, they are not doing that. I cannot stand idly by.

“This vote is about sending a loud and clear message to Netanyahu and the Trump Administration that they must urgently act to end this war, surge food and aid to innocent Palestinians, and finally bring all the remaining hostages home.”
