House Passes Israel Aid Bill with Costly Cuts to IRS

“The Republican-controlled House on Thursday approved legislation to send roughly $14 billion in emergency aid to Israel and cut about the same amount from the Internal Revenue Service, in a deeply divided vote on a measure that Senate leaders say they won’t take up and President Biden has already threatened to veto,” the Washington Post reports.

“The legislation passed by a 226-196 vote, with 12 Democrats joining most Republicans to back it.”
