Besides the DHS hangup, the other contentious issues have been resolved, we’re told.

For example, the two sides were able to find agreement on U.S. aid for the Palestinians. Currently, such aid is funneled through the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, or UNRWA. But after Israel alleged that a dozen UNRWA employees were involved in the Oct. 7 terror attacks by Hamas, the United States froze such aid.

Under the new bipartisan deal, U.S. aid to the Palestinians can’t be routed through UNRWA through at least March 2025, according to multiple GOP and Democratic sources. It must go through other organizations.
