Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) said Tuesday he believed it was inappropriate for lawmakers to invite Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to address a joint session of Congress, and reiterated his plans to boycott any speech the leader may give in Washington.
WASHINGTON— Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., called out top leaders in both parties on Tuesday for welcoming Netanyahu to Congress, excoriating the Israeli prime minister as a “war criminal” amid the ongoing war with Gaza.
A bill introduced by the US senator Bernie Sanders would dramatically expand access to oral healthcare by adding dental benefits to Medicare and enhance them in Medicaid, public health insurance programs that together cover 115 million older and lower-income Americans.
Progressive Democrats initially might have been wary of Sara Jacobs when she came to Congress in 2021. The Center for Responsive Politics showed that in 2020, she was the fifth most self-funded candidate, a product of the fact that her grandfather co-founded the semiconductor company Qualcomm. She also beat a candidate who had the endorsement of Senator Bernie Sanders, who had won the California primary.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) voiced support on Tuesday for the International Criminal Court’s recent announcement to seek arrest warrants for Israeli officials and leaders of the militant group Hamas for their role in the ongoing violence in Gaza.
Dr. Maxine Dexter, a physician and state representative, won a contentious Democratic primary in a liberal Oregon House seat on Tuesday with help from big-money super PACs and pro-Israel donors.
Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., deviated from some of his Democratic colleagues and jumped on board with International Criminal Court prosecutor Karim Khan's move Monday to file applications for arrest warrants against Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and Hamas leaders for allegedly committing "war crimes" during the conflict in Gaza.
