WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Senator Rick Scott, a staunch supporter of Israel, delivered a passionate speech on the Senate floor, expressing his concerns about the Biden administration's approach to aid for Gaza and support for Israel amidst the ongoing conflict in the region.

In his address, Senator Scott voiced his frustration over the Senate Democrats' failure to pass his Stop Taxpayer Funding of Hamas Act, which aims to prevent U.S. taxpayer dollars from benefiting terrorists. He criticized the Democrats for blocking his bill, which would ensure that aid does not end up in the hands of Hamas terrorists.

Senator Scott highlighted his unwavering support for Israel's defense efforts, emphasizing the importance of safeguarding aid to prevent it from reaching Hamas. He expressed his worries about President Biden potentially using aid to Israel as leverage for advancing an anti-Israel foreign policy.

The Senator also condemned the Biden administration for what he perceives as appeasement towards Iran and a lack of support for Israel. He raised concerns about the potential repercussions of providing aid to Gaza, which is under Hamas control and where Americans are being held hostage.

Senator Scott's remarks underscored his commitment to preventing U.S. taxpayer money from supporting terrorists and ensuring that aid to Gaza is not misused. He criticized the current aid package under consideration in the Senate, stating that it lacks safeguards to prevent funds from reaching Hamas.

As the debate over foreign aid and support for Israel continues, Senator Scott remains steadfast in his advocacy for policies that prioritize the safety and security of both Israel and the United States.
