WASHINGTON—More than 100 House Democrats voted for a measure to eliminate about $3 billion in military financing to Israel, providing a clear picture of how support for the country has cratered in the party nearly three years into the war with Hamas.
The amendment, proposed by Rep. Thomas Massie (R., Ky.), failed to pass, as all other GOP lawmakers and many Democrats, including Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D., N.Y.) voted to defeat it. But the tally demonstrated the growing frustration and anger, particularly on the left, with the Israeli government and its actions in Gaza following the Hamas attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.
