The top Republican on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee is threating to block all action on nominees and legislation in the committee unless progress is made to pass sanctions against the Intenational Criminal Court, which has drawn bipartisan fire for its recent indictments of top leaders of both Israel and Hamas.
The top Republican on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee is threatening to block all action on nominees and legislation in the committee unless progress is made to pass sanctions against the International Criminal Court, which has drawn bipartisan fire for its recent indictments of top leaders of both Israel and Hamas. The dramatic move in a committee known for bipartisan cooperation – which was first reported by Punchbowl News – speaks to Republican Sen.
” Republicans believe the fastest way to pass a sanctions bill would be for the Senate to take up one that passed the House, especially as the number of legislative days before the August recess are shrinking. But Democratic Sen. Ben Cardin of Maryland, who chairs the Foreign Relations Committee, criticized the House measure as a “divisive partisan bill” and said he is trying to reach a deal with Republicans to move bipartisan sanctions legislation.
