President Trump "Strongly Supports" the Taylor Force Act to Cut Aid to PA over Payments to Terrorists
(Jerusalem Post) Michael Wilner - The Taylor Force Act threatens a dramatic cut in aid to the PA if it continues compensating families of Palestinians convicted in Israel of murder and terrorism, and the families of slain terrorists. Israel and the U.S. argue that the program is immoral. A senior White House official told the Jerusalem Post over the weekend that President Trump "strongly supports" the Taylor Force Act and that he will sign it into law once it reaches his desk. The bill has passed the full House of Representatives and the Senate Foreign Relations Committee with overwhelming bipartisan support.
