Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met on Tuesday evening in Jerusalem with U.S. Representatives Andrew Clyde (R-Ga.) and Marlin Stutzman (R-Ind.).

The meeting came a day after Netanyahu met with U.S. Senator Dave McCormick (R-Pa.), expressing gratitude for the American lawmaker’s “deep” support for the Jewish state.

Also Monday, Netanyahu held talks with a bipartisan congressional delegation led by Rep. Mike Lawler (R-N.Y.), which included Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-Fla.) and Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Texas).

The developments followed Netanyahu’s Sunday discussions with Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.) and Kristi Noem, the U.S. secretary of homeland security.
