U.S.-Israel relationship is critical

"Israel holds a special place not only in our nation's network of allies but also in human history. It is a state defined by thousands of years of struggle, the resiliency of its people, and an enduring belief that the unspeakable tragedy of the Holocaust must never happen again. Last month, I went on a bipartisan congressional visit to Israel. The U.S.-Israel relationship is critical to protecting and strengthening democracy and our shared interests in the region," writes Rep. Donald Norcross.
