Britt is the only freshman in the Senate to be part of the trip.
Alabama Sen. Katie Britt is part of an eight-member Senate delegation that will leaving Washington Thursday night for a trip to Israel, Saudi Arabia and Egypt.The trip comes after President Joe Biden visited Israel earlier this week in the aftermath of the start of a war launched by Hamas.
Andrew Desiderio of Punchbowl News, who posted on X the names of senators making the trip, said the group will meet with Secretary of State Antony Blinken before departing. Blinken was meeting with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell earlier Thursday, according to Desiderio.“When we see what’s happening in Israel, y’all it is pure evil,” Britt said at a press conference earlier this week. “You can’t look at it as a parent, as an American, just as a person, and not be able to say that.
Britt also called for the Biden administration to apply economic strangleholds to Hamas and their allies in the war against Israel.
