Hoyer Statement on Passage of U.S.-Israel Strategic Partnership Act of 2014 WASHINGTON, DC – House Democratic Whip Steny H. Hoyer (MD) released the following statement today on the House's passage of the United States-Israel Strategic Partnership Act of 2014: “Today, the House overwhelmingly passed legislation strengthening U.S.-Israel defense cooperation and expanding energy collaboration, reaffirming America’s strong commitment to Israel’s security and our close ties with its government and people. The U.S.-Israel relationship is based on a shared determination to defend democracy and ensure that the people of Israel can live peacefully in their ancient homeland. Those who would stand opposed to Israel’s right to exist or its important historic role ought to see in today’s legislative action a reminder that the American people stands shoulder-to-shoulder with our ally Israel as it seeks the peace and security it deserves.” Visit www.democraticwhip.gov/ for more press, floor and member resources.
