Congress to Vote on Measure Opposing Administration's Anti-Israel 'Stunt' at U.N.
(CNSNews.com) – U.S. lawmakers will have their first opportunity this week to respond legislatively to last month’s controversial U.N. Security Council resolution condemning Israel, and a vote has been lined up for Thursday.
Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy and House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Ed Royce (R-Calif.) announced Monday that the House will vote on a resolution opposing Security Council resolution 2334.
The U.N. measure passed just before Christmas after the Obama administration chose to abstain rather than use its veto to kill it – as it did in the case of a similar resolution in 2011.
