John,
AIPAC attacked some of our Justice Democrats incumbents on Twitter yesterday, but AOC fought back:
She’s right: AIPAC is the NRA of foreign policy in the United States.
This pro-war, anti-Palestinian lobby group uses GOP, millionaire, and corporate donors’ money to buy votes on both sides of the aisle in support of their agenda, standing in the way of progress, human rights, and saving lives.
Just like the NRA wants Congress to continue allowing the mass shootings of children in schools and people in communities across the United States for the sake of gun lobby profits, AIPAC wants Congress to continue enabling the death and destruction of Palestinians all on the U.S. taxpayer’s dime.
We can’t let AIPAC strengthen its grip on our government by successfully unseating the only members of Congress who have the courage to stand up to them.
Our work is directly fueled by people like you, so we appreciate any amount you can contribute to support our work during this monumental election year.
— Justice Democrats
Do not worry if you cannot afford to make a contribution — we understand that this is a difficult time. There are other ways to make an impact in support of peace and equality in Israel and Palestine: please urge your member of Congress to support a ceasefire through Adalah Justice Project’s petition or by calling them using Jewish Voice for Peace’s dialer here. Your voice matters in this critical moment. |
