Jewish Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders commented on the US Senate's decision to approve aid to Israel in a statement published to X on Wednesday.
"I voted no tonight on the foreign aid package for one simple reason: US taxpayers should not be providing billions to the extremist Netanyahu government to continue its devastating war against the Palestinian people."
