The RPA Stands With Israel

The Republican Party of Arkansas continues to stand with Israel, a nation that has every right to defend itself against violence and the barrage of rockets from Hamas. It is vital that the United States stand with Israel and the Jewish community.

The Republican Party Stands Behind Israel

The Republican Party stands behind Israel, one of America’s strongest allies. Less than one month ago, Joe Biden unfroze $6 billion for Iran, the largest state sponsor of terror, and now Israel is once again under attack. Time and time again, Biden’s weakness and appeasement of Iran and some Democrats' anti-Israel, antisemitic rhetoric have emboldened our enemies. We strongly condemn the terrorist attacks against the people of Israel, who have every right to defend themselves against these unprovoked attacks.

What you need to know:

• Our hearts are heavy and our thoughts and prayers remain with our friends in Israel, one of America’s strongest allies.
• The Republican Party stands with Israel and the Israeli people’s right to defend themselves against these unprovoked attacks. 
• President Biden must condemn the vile anti-Israel rhetoric coming from some Democrat Members of Congress.
• This Administration has failed to stand up to our enemies and our allies are questioning whether we are reliable.

The bottom line:

Despite Democrats weakness, one thing is clear, Republicans will always stand with Israel. 

Bidenflation Isn't Going Away

Biden and his bad economic policies continue to make life more difficult and expensive for Americans.
