America First Legal says Biden is subsidizing Palestinian terrorism

AFL Files Amended Complaint against President Biden and Secretary of State Blinken

to Enforce the Taylor Force Act and to Stop U.S. Funding of Palestinian Terrorism

Highlights Biden’s Knowledge that Funding the PA and UNRWA Supports Terrorism

WASHINGTON, D.C. – America First Legal (AFL) announced the filing of a First Amended Complaint against President Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken for violating the Taylor Force Act. Taylor Force, a West Point graduate and veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan, was murdered by a Palestinian terrorist.

The original complaint was filed on December 20, 2022. The Court denied the Defendants’ motion to dismiss the Plaintiffs’ case on February 2, 2024. The amended complaint alleges that the Biden Administration illegally reversed the Trump Administration’s ban on Palestinian funding, spending approximately $500 million U.S. tax dollars for “Economic Support Funds” in Gaza and in Judea and Samaria (the “West Bank”), and another $1 billion for the United Nations Relief Works Agency (UNRWA) to directly benefit the Palestinian Authority (PA). It further alleges that the Biden Administration knowingly subsidized the PA’s “pay-to-slay” bounty system, the expansion of Hamas’s military capabilities in Gaza, and UNRWA’s material support for Palestinian terrorism.

They have evidence that the Biden Administration Knowingly Subsidizes Palestinian Terrorism.

In 2018, the Trump Administration terminated Economic Support Funds for the benefit of the PA and stopped making payments to UNRWA because it supports terrorism. Accordingly, it complied with the Taylor Force Act. The amended complaint alleges that the Biden Administration illegally reversed course to knowingly subsidize Palestinian terrorism.
