Congressman Keith Ellison has called for amending the law on foeign aid to Egypt and linking it to certain conditions, such as holding fair parliamentary elections and freeing all political prisoners who hold the US citizenship.
Ellison added the US President may waive the first condition if it serves the national security of the United States, by submitting a written notification, justifying his reasons to the Defense Committee, the Foreign Relations Committee and the Committee on Foreign Affairs no later than a week after his decision.
