WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman Derrick Van Orden (WI-03) expressed strong condemnation following Iran's drone strikes into Israel. Van Orden attributed the attacks to what he perceives as President Biden's global weaknesses and abandonment of allies.
Van Orden criticized the Biden administration for providing significant financial support to Iran and its proxies, including the terrorist group Hamas. He highlighted concerns raised by House Democrats regarding military aid to Israel and Chuck Schumer's call for the removal of the Israeli government.
According to Van Orden, President Biden's actions have contributed to a more perilous world environment. He expressed solidarity with the Israeli people and American hostages held by hostile forces. Van Orden urged House leadership to convene an emergency session and swiftly approve aid for Israel to safeguard the nation's security in the Middle East.
