This bill would prohibit any appropriations to Egypt after FY 2012 from any federal department or agency.

On 12/10/12, Rep. Buchanan sent a letter to every member of the House urging them to support this bill. In the letter, Buchanan raised serious concerns about whether Egypt would recognize its 1979 peace treaty with Israel and asserted that U.S. assistance to Egypt should end because Egypt had sided with Hamas during Operation Pillar of Defense.
