The newspaper quoted unnamed White House officials as warning that they may veto the Republican-written bill. They said in a statement that “rather than putting forward a package that strengthens American national security in a bipartisan way, the bill fails to meet the urgency of the moment by deepening our divides and severely eroding historic bipartisan support for Israel’s security.”
The White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB), in turn, made it clear that President Joe Biden would veto the bill, claiming that the document was "bad for Israel, bad for the Middle East region, and bad for our [US] own national security.
He was joined by House Republicans Thomas Massie and Marjorie Taylor Greene, who said they would oppose the bill. In a social media post, Greene insisted that the US "needs to focus on spending Americans' hard-earned tax dollars on our own country and serving the American people, not the rest of the world."
