The following is a statement from Congresswoman Debbie Halvorson on Passage of the House Resolution to support Israel:
“Hamas’ indiscriminate rocket attacks and use of terror against Israel is unjustifiable. As a sovereign nation, it is the right and the duty of Israel to protect its citizens. This is why I voted in favor of House Resolution 34, a resolution to support Israel in its battle with the terrorist organization Hamas. Hamas must end its rocket attacks immediately, and it is my hope a cease-fire can be established as soon as possible.”
