25 House Republicans make recess trip to Israel
25 House Republicans are using their August recess to pay a visit to Israel, the largest delegation of GOP lawmakers to visit that country.
House Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va.), the only Jewish Republican in Congress, is leading the delegation, Arutz Sheva reported Sunday.
The trip is expected to focus on Middle East peace, as well as national security issues.
Domestic violence in Israel has still overlapped with the trip; a gunman killed three Israelis at a gay club in Tel Aviv.
Cantor has scheduled in August 5th press conference to discuss the trip.
