About Steny Hoyer Shari & Nathan Lindenbaum welcome back Congressman Steny Hoyer (D-MD) to an event at their home in Teaneck on April 22nd. Rep. Hoyer, the Democratic Whip in the House of Representatives, is a great friend of Israel whose legendary trips there have educated hundreds of House members about the importance of the US-Israel relationship. As House Democratic Whip for the 115th Congress, Congressman Hoyer is the second-ranking member of the House Democratic Leadership. He is charged with mobilizing the party vote on important legislation, acting as a liaison between Members and the Democratic Leadership, and coordinating strategy within the Caucus. He also plays a key role in shaping House Democrats’ legislative priorities and in delivering the Democratic message. On Iran and Syria, Rep. Hoyer stated this year that “Iran has used the conflict in Syria to establish a forward base of terror against Israel and support those who are committed to destroying the Jewish State – a goal Iran’s leaders have stated clearly and repeatedly. Americans stand shoulder to shoulder with the people of Israel as that country legitimately defends itself against threats from Iran or anyone else. It is a reminder of why a political solution to the civil conflict in Syria must not allow for any Iranian presence there from which it can terrorize Israel’s civilian population.” On the President’s decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s Capital, Hoyer said: “Jerusalem is the capital of the State of Israel, something that the United States Congress has reaffirmed and a fact of history that cannot be denied. Our country must play a constructive role in supporting Israel as it seeks the peace and security its people deserve by continuing to promote a two-state solution through direct, bilateral negotiations that will end any question of Jerusalem’s status.” Please join us in support of Congressman Steny Hoyer and share your concerns about the US-Israel relationship with him at this pro-Israel event. |
