Congress passed over $4 billion in U.S.-Israel security funding as part of its appropriations for 2026. The funding includes the full $3.3 billion in vital security assistance for Israel we lobby for each year, along with over $700 million for lifesaving U.S.-Israel defense cooperation — over $65 million more than last year’s funding levels.

As the Jewish state and the United States continue to face new and ongoing threats, a strong U.S.-Israel partnership is one of the most cost-effective investments we can make in our own security. The U.S.-Israel alliance helps keep our homeland safe, promotes regional stability, and deters our adversaries.
