Ronny Jackson (R., Texas), alleges the Biden administration is in violation of federal law for resuming U.S. aid to the Palestinian government, according to a copy of the lawsuit exclusively obtained by the <em>Washington Free Beacon<\/em>. The Trump administration froze these funds due to the Palestinian government\u2019s financial support for terrorists as part of a program known as pay-to-slay.<\/p>\n<p>The plaintiffs, led in the suit by the America First Legal Foundation, a watchdog group composed of lawyers, are asking the court to halt the Biden administration\u2019s Palestinian aid program over charges it is sustaining the pay-to-slay program in violation of a 2018 law known as the Taylor Force Act. That law\u2014named after an American who was killed in 2016 by a Palestinian terrorist\u2014bars all U.S. payments to the Palestinian government until it halts the terrorist payment program.<\/p>\n<p>The State Department, which is named as a defendant in the suit, has <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/national-security\/palestinian-government-still-pays-terrorists-as-us-aid-dollars-flow\/\">formally determined<\/a> in congressional notifications that the Palestinian government pays terrorists and incites violence against Israel. Now, a court must determine if U.S. aid payments should be stopped for violating federal law.<\/p>\n<p>Force\u2019s family is also listed as a plaintiff in the case, along with Jackson and Sarri Singer, who survived a Palestinian suicide bombing in 2003.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am committed to doing everything in my power to get the accountability these families so richly deserve as we work to make sure U.S. taxpayer-funded terrorism never happens again,&#8221; Jackson told the <em>Free Beacon<\/em>. &#8220;President Trump showed tremendous leadership when he signed the Taylor Force Act into law and ended taxpayer support for the Palestinian Authority\u2019s terrorist activities. Joe Biden\u2019s decision to reverse course knowing full well blood is on his hands as a result is unconscionable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Stuart and Robbi Force, Taylor\u2019s parents, said in a statement that President Joe Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken are &#8220;dishonoring the memory and legacy of a good man, and ignoring the citizens of the United States who understand that taxpayer dollars should not be used to fund the killing of innocent civilians.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The lawsuit centers on the Biden\u2019s administration\u2019s<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Victims of Palestinian terror attacks are suing the Biden administration for awarding nearly half a billion dollars in U.S. taxpayer funds to the Palestinian government, which allegedly uses these funds to pay convicted terrorists and their families.<br \/>\nThe post Victims of Terrorism Sue Biden Admin for Sending Taxpayer Aid to Palestinians appeared first on Washington Free Beacon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":117,"featured_media":541514,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[544],"tags":[4496,7629,4092,3620,10660,5193,7170,5349,6039,4931],"class_list":["post-1781894","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-free-beacon","tag-admin","tag-aid","tag-beacon","tag-biden","tag-palestinians","tag-sending","tag-sue","tag-taxpayer","tag-terrorism","tag-victims"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1781894","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/117"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1781894"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1781894\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/541514"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1781894"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1781894"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1781894"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
