“It’s shocking,” said Shelly Altman, a member of Jewish Voice for Peace - Connecticut, who pressed DeLauro to support the bill. " has spoken up for children detained on the U.S.-Mexico border... she’s betraying her own progressive values.”

The pervasive mischaracterization of ’s speech in the Foreign Affairs Committee this week is appalling. Watch & judge for yourself [I’ve made this super easy by clipping the video - you have NO EXCUSE not to make this small effort] 1/

Senator Elizabeth Warren's office did not respond to requests on whether she supports such a bill. last session backed McCollum's bill. This time, he's not, telling me he won't because it threatens “our aid to Israel in its entirety”

This is important because Sanders has expressed openness in the past to cutting U.S. aid to Israel. Remains to be seen whether he'll sign on to a bill that doesn't cut aid but does impose conditions on how that aid can be used

Come for the details about Rosa DeLauro's flip-flopping on a bill to ban Israel from using US aid to detain children. Stay for the scoops on J Street and progressive Dems shying away from the bill. And read what the bill, which has 21 co-sponsors will do

One Connecticut advocate pointed out to me that DeLauro has spoken up for children detained on the U.S.-Mexico border--but she refuses to do the same for Palestinian children. “She’s betraying her own progressive values.”

NEW from me and : backed a bill barring Israel from using US aid to detain Palestinian children. 10 days later, she withdrew, telling me it was an accident. But the "accident" story is undercut by e-mails from a DeLauro staffer
