The House passed a resolution tonight calling on the PA leadership to return to direct talks with Israel and to stop circumventing the peace process by lobbying for support for a unilaterally declared Palestinian state. No Member spoke in opposition to the resolution. The resolution was brought to the floor by Reps. Berman (D-CA), Poe (R-TX), Berkley (D-NV), Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL), Ackerman (D-NY) and Burton (R-IN).
