GOP-Controlled Congress Considers Bill Sanctioning Palestinian Government Over ‘Pay-to-Slay’ Program
25th January 2025
Republicans in the House and Senate jointly introduced the bill with broad backing, signaling that the measure is an early priority in both legislative chambers. The legislation would impose sanctions on the Palestinian Authority (PA) and Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) for providing millions of dollars to imprisoned terrorists and their families. It also would sanction any “foreign persons” known to facilitate these payments or help the Palestinian government administer the program.
This ought to have been done under the Carter administration and continued under every subsequent President.
