1. Restore Full Funding to Palestinian Authority Security Forces
U.S. support for training and equipping the Palestinian Authority Security Forces (PASF) is what transformed it into a professional security and police force, laying the foundation for successful security coordination between Israel and the PA. U.S. support for the PASF is also the strongest source of leverage the U.S. has for influencing PA policies. American funding for training and equipping the PASF was cut by nearly 50% in 2019 and has remained at lower levels, and it should be restored to its previous level of $75 million.
