CUFI Calls on Congress to Advance Speaker Johnson’s Clean Israel Supplemental

Parker: “…any effort to undermine or delay this legislation will directly aid the rapists and murderers of Hamas.”

WASHINGTON – On Saturday, the leadership of Christians United for Israel (CUFI), the nation’s largest pro-Israel organization, applauded Speaker Mike Johnson for his plans to bring forward a clean Israel supplemental bill and called on Congress to advance this legislation without delay.

“In the wake of the horrific 10/7 Massacre, numerous members of Congress pledged to support Israel as Jerusalem fights back against Hamas’s barbarism. Yet, more than four months since that ghastly day, Congress had yet to advance an aid package to the President’s desk. I applaud Speaker Johnson for recognizing that this is unacceptable and acting on principle by advancing a clean supplemental,” said CUFI founder and Chairman Pastor John Hagee.

“Lack of congressional action reverberates far beyond Khan Yunis and Sderot. Anything less than full American support for Israel will only further embolden Hezbollah to Israel’s north, the Houthi’s in Yemen, Iranian proxies in Iraq, and their collective paymasters in Tehran,” said CUFI Action Fund Chairwoman Sandra Parker.

“War is no time for political gamesmanship. As Israeli soldiers die in Gaza’s darkest alleys and more than 100 hostages, including Americans, are held in Gaza’s darkest tunnels, any effort to undermine or delay this legislation will directly aid the rapists and murderers of Hamas,” Parker added.

With more than 10 million members, Christians United for Israel is the largest pro-Israel organization in the United States and one of the leading Christian grassroots movements in the world. CUFI spans all fifty states and reaches millions with its educational message.

The CUFI Action Fund, a nonprofit 501(c)(4), nonpartisan organization, is related to the nation’s largest pro-Israel organization, Christians United for Israel (CUFI). The Action Fund is dedicated to ensuring our elected officials hear the perspective of the millions of Christian Zionists across the country.
