The probe was revealed in a Wednesday letter dispatched by Reps. Jim Jordan and Brian Mast, chairs of the House Judiciary and Foreign Affairs committees, respectively, to the six NGOs.
The organizations listed were the Jewish Communal Fund, the Middle East Dialogue Network, the Movement for Quality Government in Israel, PEF Israel Endowment Funds, Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors, and Blue and White Future.
The two lawmakers alleged that by reportedly funding these NGOs, the Biden administration was “attempting to undermine Israel’s democratically elected government.”
Such reported funding, the letter argued, “reflect the poor track record of USAID and the State Department in funding entities in the region.”
April 9 deadline
The letter outlined April 9 as the deadline for the NGOs to submit the details about the funding, the manner in which it was spent, and communications between the organizations.
