The US House of Representatives rejected Representative Thomas Massie's motion to end the annual $3.3 billion military aid to Israel by a vote of 314 to 104.
Massie's amendment targeted Section 219, which "merges" the military supply chains of the US and Israel. The 104 "yes" votes were recorded as the highest level the anti-aid coalition has ever reached.
The vote came as the current $38 billion aid agreement nears its expiration in 2028. The two governments are already negotiating a new "partnership" model to replace the agreement.

The 104 votes would have been unthinkable a decade ago. While the motion's rejection by a 3-to-1 margin shows that support for Israel remains strong in the House, the fact that 104 members crossed this line reveals how much the consensus beneath the surface has eroded, with these votes coming from the fringes of both parties.
This dynamic is prompting Israel to accelerate its push to transform the "aid" framework into a "partnership" model before the next vote.
