On Tuesday, one of the longest-serving senators in the US Congress,
Patrick Leahy, announced he won’t be there, joining Vice President Joe Biden
and other Democratic lawmakers who won't attend.
Netanyahu
is scheduled to address Congress on March 3, but will not meet with President
Barack Obama during his trip to Washington.
Many
people are upset the Israeli leader accepted the invitation directly from
Republican House Speaker John Boehner without consulting the White House first,
an unusual break with protocol for a head of state.
