WAHINGTON DC (WTAQ- WRN) – Bipartisan support for Israel from Wisconsin’s congressional delegation.
House Democrats Gwenn Moore and Mark Pocan issued statements condemning the attacks against Israel by Hamas. Pocan asked for humane restraint towards non-combatants and Moore called for the U.S. to engage to break this cycle of destruction and death.
Republicans Glenn Grothman and Mike Gallagher said Hamas terrorists specifically targeted women and children. Republicans Tom Tiffany, Brian Steil and Scott Fitzgerald all said Israel has the right to defend its borders.
Republican Derrick Van called the Biden administration “criminally incompetent.” Republican Senator Ron Johnson called on the Biden Administration to (quote) “ stop handing over billions to Hamas’s patron, Iran.”
Democratic Senator Tammy Baldwin called the attacks appalling and said she stands with the Israeli people.
