[1]Bowman for Congress

John,

It's meaningful to me when my colleagues in Congress take a stand for
Palestinian rights, because it requires a lot of political courage in the
face of attacks from those who want to maintain the unjust status quo.

My colleague Rep. Jamaal Bowman has really stepped up, including by
leading a recent letter calling on President Biden and the State
Department to ensure that U.S. taxpayer dollars don't fund human rights
abuses by the Israeli government against the Palestinian people.

While visiting the West Bank in 2021, Jamaal met with my sity
(grandmother) and was then blocked at a military checkpoint near her
house.

He experienced in-person what it's like for Palestinians to live in fear
under constant military presence. And he connects it to his own experience
as a Black man in the U.S. growing up with intimidating police forces
targeting Black communities. Black people and Palestinians are
criminalized just for existing.

Our struggles for justice and liberation are interconnected, from the U.S.
to Palestine and beyond. We all deserve human dignity and freedom.

Human rights organizations around the world have recognized what
Palestinians have said for decades: the Israeli government is oppressing
the Palestinian people and systematically denying equal rights to
Palestinians — in what constitutes apartheid and ethnic cleansing.

And we know that the U.S. is complicit, sending billions of dollars each
year to the Israeli military and silencing criticism of Israeli policies.
That's why we need to keep building power in the U.S. Congress to advocate
for change. Let's start by supporting members of Congress like Jamaal
Bowman, who are taking the lead despite being targeted for speaking up.

show you've got Rep. Jamaal Bowman's back as he takes courageous stands
for human rights in the U.S., Palestine, and around the world.

Thank you so much.

In solidarity,

Rashida
