Harris represents Maryland’s 1st District, the Eastern Shore, and is the sitting member and Freedom Caucus chairman.
His recorded votes on the tracked bills appear as badges on this card and split: for the November 2023 and February 2024 standalone bills and the shipment-release bill, against the April 2024 package, and against both amendments to cut aid to Israel. Nothing located explains the April 2024 No in his own words, and this card does not guess.
His strongest recent position runs through territory rather than aid: JNS reports him among the "Samaria Caucus" members urging the administration to back Israeli sovereignty over Judea and Samaria (the West Bank) and praising sanctions relief for Israeli residents there. His statement on a United Nations anti-Israel resolution sits on his site; his November 2023 co-sponsorship statement is on the research page.
Nothing located has him addressing U.S. humanitarian aid for Palestinians at any date.

How this mark works
We track key votes on sending U.S. weapons and money to the government of Israel. A check means every tracked vote they cast came down against sending more, on the side of peace and de-escalation. A question mark means a mixed record: they sided with sending up to half of the time. An X means they voted to send more weapons and money in over half of their tracked votes, even as the way those weapons and dollars were being used became more and more obvious. At exactly half, money this election cycle from a lobbying group we track, or an endorsement from a group that backs sending weapons, makes it an X. Only votes actually cast are counted. Where a candidate has no recorded votes on these bills, the mark comes instead from a reviewed reading of their public record (money from the lobbying groups we track, endorsements, and their own words since January 26, 2024). There an X also covers fully backing the conduct of the war by the government of Israel without significant reservations, and a question mark also covers speaking about Israel without saying clearly where they stand on U.S. weapons and funding. A dash means No Position Found: we found nothing in their own words about Israel, Gaza or the war.

Research log
The notes behind this card: what we looked at, what we found, and where each item came from.
U.S. military aid and weapons to Israel
His recorded votes appear as badges on this card and split as the front states; no located explanation of the April 2024 No (the Freedom-Caucus offsets pattern seen elsewhere is NOT imputed to him).
[Reaction window, 2023-11-03] His statement on the standalone bill, verified: "Israel is in a fight for its very existence against radical Islamic terrorists", with the bill’s defensive-systems itemization. Not on the card summary; it also concerns defensive systems.

Campus-antisemitism letters appear via colleagues’ sites; dates checked, nothing quoted.
