NEW YORK – Today, Alison Esposito, a 25-year veteran of the New York Police Department (NYPD), former candidate for Lieutenant Governor, and Candidate for Congress in New York’s 18th Congressional District, released the following statement after it was reported that Senate and House Democrats want to put conditions on aid to our great ally, Israel:
Earlier this month, Congressman Pat Ryan refused to support aid to Israel because he claimed ‘you don’t put conditions on it.’ Now, he fails to call out the far-left in Congress for demanding conditions on aid to Israel. As each day progresses, it becomes clearer that Pat Ryan is a walking contradiction with no backbone. We need our leaders in Congress to be honest about where they stand and not try to placate everyone with no real actions. In Congress, I will ALWAYS stand with Israel. The last thing Congress should be doing now is putting conditions on aid to our great ally.
