A measure to end U.S. aid to Israel, introduced by Representative Rashida Tlaib, received support from 86 House Democrats, nearly half of the party's caucus. The resolution, which sought to halt military assistance to Israel, ultimately failed with 224 votes against it.

Despite its defeat, the significant number of Democrats who voted in favor signals a notable shift in the party's stance on the long-standing alliance. This vote marks a departure from decades of bipartisan consensus supporting aid to Israel.

The "No" votes were logged by 213 Democrats and 11 Republicans. The "Yes" votes came from 163 Democrats and 15 Republicans. The measure failed by a vote of 224 to 187.
