Senator Ted Cruz and Congressman Michael McCaul are among those who are pledging support for Israel after Saturday's deadly surprise attacks by Hamas. McCaul, who chairs the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said he strongly supports "robust U.S. security assistance to Israel." Senate Foreign Relations Committee member Ted Cruz said he stands with Israel as they "do what they must to defend themselves." Numerous members of the House and Senate on both sides of the aisle have spent Saturday condemning the attacks and expressing support for Israel.
