House Republican leadership announced on Saturday, April 13 that the chamber will vote during the week of April 15 “on Israel legislation after Iran launched an aerial attack that quickly fueled new bipartisan calls for a foreign aid package.”
The announcement came from Majority Leader Steve Scalise, and was a response to the Israeli Defense Forces confirming that Iran had launched a major aerial drone attack against Israel.
Israel was expected to try to intercept the drones before they reached their intended targets.
“In light of Iran’s unjustified attack on Israel, the House will move from its previously announced legislative schedule next week to instead consider legislation that supports our ally Israel and holds Iran and its terrorist proxies accountable,” Scalise said in a statement.
It’s not exactly clear what legislation Congress will vote on, but maybe some people will think that doesn’t matter.
To them, Congress is at least appearing to begin to act, and progress is all they can ask for.
