The State Department and CRS both report that the US annually provides $3.3 billion in Foreign Military Financing to Israel as the baseline, so the claim's figure and characterization hold. The claim is faithful to the passage, and the $3.8 billion total including $500 million for missile defense is a different measure that does not contradict it.

This claim is about the present, so it is judged as of the day it was checked.

… from the likes of this kind of a system, where anybody can decide that they can do whatever bidding a corporation tells them to do, which, of course, always means that we lose and they win. I want you to think about APAC funding. Who loses? You do.

What we found

Supports. The State Department says that under the 2019-2028 MOU the US annually provides $3.3 billion in FMF plus $500 million for missile defense.[2]

Supports. CRS reports that P.L. 119-4 provides FMF to Israel at the FY2024 base level of $3.3 billion, and that appropriators have matched or exceeded the $3.3 billion authorization annually.[3]

Context. Some sources describe the total baseline as $3.8 billion per year, which combines the $3.3 billion FMF with $500 million for missile defense; this is a broader measure, not a contradiction of the $3.3 billion FMF baseline.[4][5]

Context. Recent supplemental funding after October 7, 2023 has pushed annual totals well above the baseline, but the baseline figure itself is unchanged.[1][6]
