November 17, 2024 - Washington, D.C. – With this week marking the end of the Biden-Harris administration’s window for the Israeli government to improve the humanitarian response in Gaza — and the administration stating that it will continue to provide arms despite Israel’s failure to meet its explicit requirements — Senator Warren released the following statement:

“On October 13, the Biden administration told Prime Minister Netanyahu that his government had 30 days to increase humanitarian aid into Gaza or face the consequences under U.S. law, which would include cutting off military assistance. Thirty days later, the Biden administration acknowledged that Israel’s actions had not significantly expanded food, water, and basic necessities for desperate Palestinian civilians. Despite Netanyahu’s failure to meet the United States’ demands, the Biden administration has taken no action to restrict the flow of offensive weapons. The failure by the Biden administration to follow U.S. law and to suspend arms shipments is a grave mistake that undermines American credibility worldwide. If this administration will not act, Congress must step up to enforce U.S. law and hold the Netanyahu government accountable through a Joint Resolution of Disapproval.”
