Today’s Headlines and Commentary
After weeks of tense confrontation between Arab protesters and Israeli police in Jerusalem—including violent clashes in recent days—cross-border conflict between Israel and militant groups in Gaza escalated on Monday evening, reports the New York Times. A Hamas military spokesman, Abu Obeida, said that the militant group had launched 137 rockets at the Israeli coastal cities of Ashdod and Ashkelon within five minutes, appearing to have killed two Israelis and wounded dozens of others. Israeli military officials said that over 500 rockets had been launched from Gaza, although most of them either did not reach Israel or were destroyed by the military’s anti missile defense system. Israel launched at least 130 retaliatory strikes into Gaza on Monday and Tuesday—reportedly resulting in the deaths of at least 26 Palestinians, including nine children.

Lawmakers Look to Crack Down on White House's Discretion in Allocating Agency Funding


Lawmakers Look to Crack Down on White House's Discretion in Allocating Agency Funding
Democrats decry "unelected officials" who make spending decisions in communities they do not understand.
Senior Correspondent
Lawmakers are renewing their push to restrict the flexibility the executive branch has in allocating and revoking federal funding, looking to claw back their power of the purse after what they identified as abuses by recent administrations. 
The House Budget Committee held a hearing on strategies to reassert Congress' power, with a panel of government and outside watchdogs largely agreeing that reforms are necessary. Lawmakers noted that "cornerstone" spending laws such as the Antideficiency Act and the Impoundment Control Act are toothless as the executive branch has ignored legal decisions issued by the Government Accountability Office to enforce them. The White House and agencies have issued interpretations of the laws that give themselves far more latitude than Congress ever intended to provide, the lawmakers said.

Power of the Purse Coalition Shares Priorities With 117th Congress


Dear Leader Schumer, Speaker Pelosi, Leader McConnell, and Leader McCarthy:
On behalf of the undersigned organizations, members of the Power of the Purse Coalition, we write requesting your support for advancing a number of initiatives in the 117th Congress to strengthen the legislative branch’s constitutional authority over the federal government’s purse strings.
Lawmakers in both parties have reacted with alarm and chagrin in recent years when Presidents from both parties have overstepped the bounds of their executive power. Our organizations represent many different positions on the ideological spectrum, but we formed this coalition based on a firm belief that the erosion of congressional capacity and authority to the aggrandizement of the executive branch is a nonpartisan problem requiring bipartisan solutions.
