372 Reps and 93 Senators Praise Milldle East Deal
[Washington Free Beacon] A majority of House and Senate Democrats supported a resolution praising a key diplomatic achievement of the Trump administration.Bipartisan! Over the past month, 93 Senators and 372 House members‐amounting to over 90 percent of the Senate and 85 percent of the House‐cosponsored legislation supporting the signing of the Abraham Accords, a series of peace agreements between the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, and Israel brokered by the Trump administration. Both the Senate and House resolutions affirm the desire for a peaceful solution to issues between Israel and Palestinians, and encourage other Gulf countries to consider fully normalizing relations with Jerusalem. Article has links to the list of those approving the resolution. I checked: Pelosi and Schumer are absent. Either didn't vote, or voted "nay".
