Congress to Freeze State Dept Funds Until Embassy Moves to Jerusalem

Congress to Freeze State Dept Funds Until Embassy Moves to Jerusalem:

"A delegation of Republican senators is moving forward with an effort to freeze some funding to the State Department until the U.S. embassy in Israel is formally moved to Jerusalem, according to new legislation.

The legislation comes as the Obama administration continues to face criticism over its behind-the-scenes effort to forward a United Nations resolution condemning Israel."
