While there is much work ahead, I have long held the belief and the resolute hope in a lasting two-state solution. The people of Israel deserve safety and security, and the United States should continue to bipartisanly affirm Israel’s right to exist. The Palestinian people deserve self-determination and a surge of humanitarian aid – the exact type of aid that this amendment cuts. This decades-long issue is larger than our current leadership. It is our responsibility to craft and advance meaningful foreign policies that ensure all people – Israeli and Palestinian alike – can live and thrive without fear of violence.

Elfreth reaffirmed support for a lasting two-state solution, Israel's security and right to exist, Palestinian self-determination and increased humanitarian aid, and advancing foreign policies so Israelis and Palestinians can live without fear of violence.

Elfreth said she voted present on Representative Massie's amendment to the FY2027 national security appropriations bill. She said the amendment was written so broadly that it would further destabilize the Middle East and cut longstanding funding for humanitarian aid, refugee resettlement, and peace-building initiatives throughout the region, including the West Bank.

Elfreth joined Rep. Brad Schneider and House Democrats on a letter urging President Trump to call on Prime Minister Netanyahu to immediately restore the flow of humanitarian aid into Gaza. The letter said Israel has the right and obligation to defeat Hamas and rescue hostages, while also saying Israel must enable lifesaving humanitarian aid into Gaza and promote lasting peace.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): This is a concrete same-term sign-on action supporting parts of the commitment: Israel's security/right to defend itself, humanitarian aid for Palestinians, and a path toward lasting peace. It does not by itself deliver the full two-state solution or Palestinian self-determination outcome.

Assessments

Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): partial. same_term A for effort

Elfreth has taken same-term actions aligned with parts of the commitment, including joining a House Democratic letter pressing for restoration of humanitarian aid to Gaza and publicly opposing an amendment she said would cut humanitarian, refugee resettlement, and peace-building funds while reaffirming Israel's right to exist, Palestinian self-determination, and a two-state solution. These actions advance the stated policy position, but they do not show that she delivered a lasting two-state policy outcome or materially enacted the full promised set of foreign-policy results. The appropriate finding is partial fulfillment with demonstrated effort in her current federal term.
