WHY IT MATTERS

These programs typically include the research and development of joint missile defense systems like the Iron Dome, which are central to the security relationship between the two nations.

WHO IS AFFECTED

Defense contractors, military researchers, and security personnel involved in joint U.S.-Israel defense initiatives would have been the most directly affected if the funding had been removed.
