Senate Probes AMP for Hamas and SJP Ties

A Senate investigation has been launched into American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) due to alleged ties to Hamas, a U.S.-designated terrorist organization, and its involvement in organizing anti-Israel protests on college campuses. Led by Senator Bill Cassidy, the inquiry seeks to uncover AMP's connections with Students for Justice in Palestine, which has faced bans on multiple campuses for security concerns. The Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee has requested information from several universities and federal agencies regarding AMP's campus activities and potential funding from these institutions. The investigation also highlights concerns over AMP's alleged financial ties to Hamas, including past fundraising activities linked to the Holy Land Foundation. The controversy has intensified amidst rising tensions and protests related to the Gaza conflict. The investigation underscores a broader scrutiny of campus activities involving groups with reported terrorist affiliations.
