ALBANY  — The New York Republican Party today called on Congressman Pat Ryan to clarify whether he agrees with his ally AOC in opposing U.S. support for defensive systems like Iron Dome.

“Congressman Ryan owes his constituents a clear answer: does he stand with AOC in opposing funding for life-saving, purely defensive systems that protect innocent civilians from rocket attacks?” said NYGOP spokesman David Laska. 

“Enough dodging: New Yorkers deserve to know if Rep. Ryan supports Israel’s ability to defend themself against terrorism, or if he is aligning himself with the anti-Semitic far-left fringe of his party.”
