Fresh off a recent trip to Israel, a bipartisan group of House lawmakers is urging President Joe Biden to use his trip to Israel and Saudi Arabia this week to promote and work to expand the normalization agreements between Israel and Arab states to include Saudi Arabia.

Reps. Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ), Fred Upton (R-MI), Jake Auchincloss (D-MA), Mike Turner (R-OH), Ron Kind (D-WI), Don Bacon (R-NE) and Donald Norcross (D-NJ) participated in a trip to Israel in late June and early July organized by the American Israel Education Foundation, an AIPAC affiliate. 

Five of the trip participants spoke to Jewish Insider last week upon their return to the U.S., each urging Biden to use his upcoming visit to seek prospects for expanding the Abraham Accords. The president is expected to be in the region from July 13-16.
