SENATE SOUNDLY REJECTS BERNIE SANDERS PUSH TO SCRUTINIZE ISRAEL AID

"The Senate on Tuesday voted overwhelmingly to reject a resolution forced to a vote by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) aimed at tying U.S. military assistance for Israel to the country's treatment of Palestinian human rights.

Why it matters: It's a demonstration of the bipartisan support Israel still enjoys in Congress despite pockets of opposition among Democratic lawmakers.

Driving the news: The Senate voted 72-11 to table the resolution, effectively killing it."

It is more important than ever that we organize.
