Republicans and Democrats ask Biden to evacuate their citizens from Israel

 


As airlines cancel flights to and from Israel, several Republicans and Democrats in Congress are strongly urging President Joe Biden to immediately evacuate all Americans in the war-torn country.

Rep. Chris Smith, R-N.J., said Tuesday that he has received “many reports from constituents who are U.S. citizens currently in Israel” who “are seeking to return to the United States as soon as possible but are unable to do so.” "

"I urged the Biden administration to stop wasting time and immediately ensure the evacuation of American citizens who are stranded in Israel," Smith said in a statement.

A bipartisan group of representatives also asked the State Department in a letter Tuesday to help bring those stranded back to the United States. ncregister
