“It is always a good thing when America’s leaders declare their support for Israel. But it is not enough," Ryan will say, according to an excerpt of his speech.

"The speeches, the statements — all the words in the world mean nothing if you don’t back them up with action."

"That is why, two years ago, when the rockets were falling on Tel Aviv, the House approved emergency support for the Iron Dome. That is why, within just two months of my becoming Speaker, we voted to fund every penny of our security assistance commitment."

"And that is why I can pledge to you tonight that as long as I am Speaker, I will not allow any legislation that divides our countries to come to the House floor.”
