Senate Democrats are rushing to confirm former Treasury Secretary Jack Lew as the next ambassador to Israel amid a war between Israel and the terrorist organization Hamas.
During his tenure in the Clinton administration, Lew helped develop the memorandum of understanding for federal funding for Israel. During the Obama administration, he helped secure “crucial funding” for Israel’s multi-tier missile defense systems, according to NBC News. “There's no greater mission than to work to strengthen the ties between the U.S. and Israel,” Lew said in his opening statement before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
