WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Senator Joni Ernst (R-Iowa), a combat veteran and member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, noted Israel is under attack not only from Iran and its terror proxies but also within the halls of Congress.

Ernst highlighted her ongoing support for Israel as co-chair of the Abraham Accords Caucus, and her measure in this year’s National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) to improve security efforts in the Middle East.
