2022 NY Governor's race: on Foreign Policy


Lee Zeldin: Congressional report on hate speech in Palestinian textbooks

A bipartisan group of lawmakers reintroduced the Peace and Tolerance in Palestinian Education Act. The bill requires the Secretary of State to submit a report to Congress reviewing textbooks produced by the Palestinian Authority. Rep. Brad Sherman sponsored the bill along with Lee Zeldin, Josh Gottheimer, Brian Mast and David Trone. There are concerns that such textbooks "include language and imagery that encourage violence and hatred toward other nations and ethnic groups," Sherman said.

Tom Suozzi: His first House floor speech was in support of Israel

In Congress, Suozzi has established himself as a common-sense Democrat who reaches across the aisle to get things done for his district. He is vice-chair of the Problem Solver's Caucus that consists of 56 members, evenly split between Democrats and Republicans. His first House floor speech was in support of Israel, after the Obama administration allowed the passage of the U.N. Security Council resolution (UNSC 2334) condemning Israeli settlements in the occupied. West Bank.
