Congress will condemn UN for their anti-Israel vote
With the US Congress now convening for the new sessions, they'll be issuing a special condemnation of the UN for taking such an anti-Israel/settlment stance:
Congressional Republicans are moving quickly to denounce the United Nations for its recent Security Council resolution deeming all Israeli settlements “flagrant violation[s] of international law.”They also intend to advance motions to defund the UN, but are uncertain it'll get bipartisan support in the Senate. I think it's a good idea to start lobbying at the Senate to make sure they take the wish to defund the UN seriously.
More than 100 members of Congress have formally condemned the resolution, the Times of Israel reported.
GOP lawmakers in both chambers have decided to introduce resolutions targeted at the UN once Congress reconvenes. Kansas Sen. Jerry Moran and Florida Rep. Dennis Ross are both slated to introduce disapproval resolutions against the international body.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) indicated that he did not know whether the chamber would vote on Moran’s resolution or a similar one.
However, despite the Republican lead on the resolution, several aides have said anti-UN action will receive bipartisan support.
