A Political Change, Not a Policy Victory: Changes to US Aid to Israel

Written By Noam Shelef

This is a recording of a New Jewish Narrative webinar from July 1, 2026.

Listen to the audio on PeaceCast

A transcript and the PowerPoint from the webinar will be available shortly.

The US-Israel Memorandum of Understanding – $3.8 billion a year in Foreign Military Financing – expires in 2028. Formal talks on a replacement framework have already begun, and Prime Minister Netanyahu is trying to shape what comes next.

This is a political change, not a policy victory. The new framework embeds US support for Israel in Pentagon contracts and co-production agreements. That makes it less visible and far harder for advocates and Congress to condition or challenge.

Join NJN President & CEO Hadar Susskind and VP for Government Relations Madeleine Cereghino for a live webinar on what's changing, why it matters, and where advocacy to shift Israel’s conduct goes from here.
