Senate Committee Approves FY24 State, Foreign Operations Appropriations Bill

Press Release

"I'm very pleased to have worked with Subcommittee Chairman Coons to produce a bipartisan product that ensures that our State Department is adequately funded and protected from threats throughout the world. America's soft power is maintained in this bill because without soft power, you have war. Among this bill's provisions, it provides strong military assistance for Israel and recognizes that a world food crisis is a growing threat to security, while taking significant steps to address it. Further, this bill allows America to have the influence she needs in a troubled world. I also appreciate Vice Chairman Collins' leadership in guiding the Appropriations Committee through several important markups. I look forward to working with my colleagues to secure additional funding to help Ukraine win the war against Russia, and address other threats to our national security."
