<p>In a post to X, Schumer shared a photo of himself, Sen. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/mitt-romney">Mitt Romney</a> (R-UT), and others hunkering down in a cramped space.</p>
<p>&#8220;While in Tel Aviv today, our delegation was rushed to a shelter to wait out rockets sent by Hamas. It shows you what Israelis have to go through. We must provide Israel with the support required to defend itself,&#8221; Schumer said.</p>

<p>Schumer <a href="https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/schumer-to-lead-bipartisan-group-of-senators-to-israel-to-show-unwavering-u-s-support">led a bipartisan group of senators</a> to Israel over the weekend in a show of support one week after Hamas launched deadly terrorist attacks on Israel. Now, Israeli forces are engaged in open warfare against Hamas in Gaza.</p>
<p>Other senators who joined Schumer and Romney on the trip <a href="https://twitter.com/usembassyjlm/status/1713553646321840459">included</a> Jacky Rosen (D-NV), Mark Kelly (D-AZ), and Bill Cassidy (R-LA).

<p>At least two other members of Congress — Sen. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/cory-booker">Cory Booker</a> (D-NJ) and Rep.
