McCaul Statement following the U.S. abstaining from the UN vote

AUSTIN, TX – Chairman Michael McCaul (TX-10) issued the following statement regarding the Administration's refusal to veto the anti-Israel UN resolution.

Chairman McCaul: "Today's vote at the UN is deplorable and undermines efforts at lasting peace. President Obama's refusal to stand firm with our great ally Israel doesn't respect the strong, deep relationship our two countries have shared for decades. I look forward to working with President-elect Trump next year to let Israel know that we have their back and we will not waver in our support."
