The American Israel Education Foundation (AIEF), the educational wing of hardline right-wing pro-Israel lobbying organization the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), is taking all but three freshmen US House Representatives on a tour of Israel, in hopes of turning them against the Iran nuclear deal.

The Democrat trip begins on August 3, and will be led by House Minority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Maryland).
The Republican trip begins on August 8, and will be led by House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-California). >Complete Report<
