A second Biden administration official has resigned in protest against President Joe Biden’s stance on Gaza and his unwavering support for Israel.
Tariq Habash is a first-generation Palestinian American, who campaigned for Biden and helped get him elected. He was later appointed as an adviser for the Department of Education.
In a resignation letter addressed to Education Secretary Miguel Cardona, Habash, said the Biden administration had “put millions of innocent lives in danger, most immediately for the 2.3 million Palestinian civilians living in Gaza who remain under constant assault and ethnic cleansing by the Israeli government.”
