House approves $1 billion for the Iron Dome as Democrats feud over Israel.

This article, written by Catie Edmondson, in the politics section of the New York Times, details the vote by U.S. House today to approve $1 billion in new funding for Israel’s Iron Dome system. The vote was overwhelmingly in favor of the measure.

I think the lede does a good job of describing the situation. Not sure if the use of the word “bitter” is necessary for it, though. It provides a good quote of someone opposing and supporting the measure. I think it is interesting because I love learning about Israel, and I care about politics in America. This is a good intersection between the two areas.
