Dear advocates, 

In the face of unparalleled violence against Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank, we cannot remain silent. Over 15,000 lives have been lost, and the death toll continues to rise. It's time for us to take action against unrestricted U.S. aid to Israel.

Our campaign, "#NoBlankChecksToNetanyahu," is a call for accountability and a much overdue oversight over how U.S. tax dollars are used by foreign militaries. 

Why Act? The mass killing of civilians, including children, is unacceptable and is a violation of international law. Netanyahu's extremist government is relentlessly assaulting civilians and rendering Gaza uninhabitable. Senators, including  Bernie Sanders, Chris Murphy, and Peter Welch are now considering proposals for conditioning military aid to Israel and ending the  blank check approach that has clearly not contributed to peace or security for either Israelis or Palestinians. Giving $14.3 billion without any conditions to Netanyahu, following the killing of over 5,000 children and expecting better results in the future, is unconscionable and reckless. 

Our Mission: We urge you to connect with your Senators NOW and demand that they place much needed restrictions on the $14.3 billion aid package to Israel to ensure that such aid is not used to harm civilians.

What's at Stake: Reassessing U.S. aid to Israel is a matter of extreme urgency, especially as we have the power to leverage our position and influence to promote de-escalation in the region, advocating for a political resolution over military intervention. This reassessment is critical to prevent complacency in actions that may violate international law and compromise our commitments to human rights.

Take action today and connect with your elected officials to demand accountability for U.S. aid to Israel. Together, let's end the blank check approach. #NoBlankChecksToNetanyahu

In solidarity,
