56 rights groups urge Congress to drop provision deepening US-Israel military ties — 1dA coalition of 56 civil rights and advocacy groups urged Congress to scrap Section 219 of the 2027 NDAA, warning that deepening US-Israel military technology ties would be dangerous as US public opinion shifts against unconditional support for Israel amid the Gaza war. The debate comes as Netanyahu signaled a move to reduce reliance on US military aid within about a decade and some lawmakers have already attempted to block the aid provision as the 3.8 billion annual assistance nears its 2028 expiry.
