Statement From Senate Republican Leader Rob Ortt On Senator Schumer Remarks Calling for New Elections in Israel

Senator Chuck Schumer’s attack on the elected Israeli government during this time of crisis is truly unconscionable. The true ‘Obstacle to peace’ is the Hamas backed terror regime that sanctioned the rape and murder of Israeli civilians on October 7th. Peace in the region will only come when the United States stands strongly in support of Israel’s right to defend itself.
