Hi John — the Democratic National Convention has been taking place in Chicago this week, and I'm not exaggerating when I say this: the support we've been seeing for Vice President Harris has been nothing short of electric.

While we've heard from important voices that represent our “big tent” party, there is a critical voice missing from our stage and this week’s conversation.

The decision not to invite a Palestinian-American to speak at the convention is one that must be revisited TODAY!

If we care about our shared humanity, if we care about justice, if we care about winning in November — we cannot dismiss our uncommitted delegates, silence those within our party who would dissent, or ignore the majority of Democrats who support a permanent ceasefire and an end to the war in Gaza.

We have a chance to push our party and country forward, but it won’t be easy. There are monied interests trying to stop us.

We need deliberate action from people in our communities – folks like you – to make it clear we won’t go back and we won't be silent. Will you sign my petition in support of the voices that are being silenced?
