这些表态反映出民主党领导层——长期以来对这个美国盟友持支持态度——与该党左翼之间日益加剧的分歧。

众议院多名关键民主党人周三宣布,他们将投票支持在下一财年切断对以色列的军事援助,这一迹象表明民主党领导层——长期以来对这个美国盟友持支持态度——与该党左翼之间的分歧日益加剧。
众议院少数党党鞭、众议院民主党二号人物、马萨诸塞州联邦众议员凯瑟琳·克拉克在一份声明中表示,她将于周三晚些时候投票支持由肯塔基州联邦众议员托马斯·马西(共和党)提出的、针对国务院拨款法案的修正案。
“很明显,现状难以为继,”克拉克说。“我们不应该为任何不遵守美国法律、利益和价值观的国家提供军事援助空白支票。内塔尼亚胡政府未能达到这一标准。”
与克拉克立场一致的还有德克萨斯州联邦众议员格雷格·卡萨尔和加利福尼亚州联邦众议员罗伯特·加西亚,他们均表示将支持马西的修正案。在《华盛顿邮报》获得的一封信中,国会进步党团主席卡萨尔呼吁同僚投票支持这项举措。而众议院监督委员会最高民主党议员加西亚在一份声明中表示,内塔尼亚胡“是一名腐败的独裁者,应该被送上刑事法庭——而不是获得数十亿美元的武器拨款”。
马西的修正案在很大程度上具有象征意义,尽管民主党方面的支持声越来越高,但该修正案很可能在共和党掌控的众议院中失败。众议院少数党领袖、纽约州联邦众议员哈基姆·杰弗里斯已表示将投反对票。

The announcements reflect a growing disconnect between the Democratic establishment, with its long-standing support for the U.S. ally, and the party’s left wing.

Some key House Democrats on Wednesday announced that they will vote to cut off military aid to Israel for the next fiscal year, in a sign of the growing disconnect between the Democratic establishment, with its long-standing support for the U.S. ally, and the party’s left wing.
In a statement, House Minority Whip Katherine Clark (Massachusetts), the No. 2 House Democrat, said she will vote in favor later Wednesday of an amendment introduced by Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Kentucky) to an appropriations package for the State Department.
“It is clear that the status quo is not tenable,” Clark said. “We should not provide a blank check for military aid to any country that does not comply with U.S. law, interests, and values. The Netanyahu government has failed to meet that standard.”
Like Clark, Reps. Greg Casar (D-Texas) and Robert Garcia (D-California) have indicated they will also support Massie’s amendment. In a letter obtained by The Washington Post, Casar, the chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, urged fellow members to vote for the measure. And Garcia, the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, said in a statement that Netanyahu “is a corrupt authoritarian who should face criminal courts — not receive billions more for weapons.”
Massie’s amendment is largely symbolic and, despite growing Democratic support, is likely to fail in the Republican-led House. Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-New York) has said he will vote against it.
