New York Democratic Representatives Jerrold Nadler and Carolyn Maloney signaled support to the Jewish Insider for support of United States recognition of Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights.
Nadler said, “The only thing the Golan has ever been used for by the Syrians is to bombard Israel. They can’t have that again. It’s unsafe.” Maloney said that “if our leadership supports it, I don’t see what the problem is. So I will be supporting it, but only if it goes through the [House Foreign Affairs Committee] and is supported by the committee.”
