Rep. John Duarte Urges House to Reelect McCarthy as Speaker to Approve Military Aid to Israel

Rep. John Duarte (R-Calif.) is calling for the House of Representatives to reelect former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy in order to approve military aid to Israel as soon as possible. Duarte expressed fear that Israel could run short on artillery in the midst of attacks by Hamas and criticized the House for dilly-dallying around with a leadership struggle when one of their strongest allies is under attack. McCarthy has not ruled out another bid for the job, and it remains to be seen if he will be reelected and if the House will be able to approve military aid to Israel in time.
