Dear John, While the world shouts “Ceasefire!,” President Biden and Congress send Ukraine weapons to attack inside Russia and risk a nuclear war. While the world shouts “Diplomacy now!” President Biden and Congress send billions more in weapons for Israel’s genocide in Gaza and chokehold on the occupied West Bank. How do we stop the madness? Where are the levers of power?

Take Action!Tell Congress: Stop Taking Money From the Zionist Lobby!In 2022 alone, the U.S Congress received $23,734,981 from the Zionist lobby. The disproportionate influence this money has over U.S legislation is clearly evident in how the U.S. is supporting Israeli genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity. Zionist influence shapes policies that perpetuate the ongoing occupation of Palestine and enable Israeli violence against Palestinians. We are here to say that the American people will no longer be complicit in this oppression! Add your name to the petition demanding U.S officials stop accepting money from the Zionist lobby!
