Press release from Eric Cantor's (R-VA) office:  "Eric stressed that the new Republican majority will serve as a check on the Administration and what has been, up until this point, one party rule in Washington...He made clear that the Republican majority understands the special relationship between Israel and the United States, and that the security of each nation is reliant upon the other."
