Progressive Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) said Sunday that President Joe Biden may risk losing Arab and Muslim votes due to his unwavering support for Israel in its ongoing war with Hamas terrorists.

Ms. Jayapal, chair of the far-left Congressional Progressive Caucus, told NBC News that President Biden needs to be “careful” about how he handles the Israel-Hamas conflict as it might hurt his reelection bid next year.
