John,

For more than a year, the far-right government of Israel has conducted countless war crimes against Palestinian and Lebanese civilians — and the United States gave them $22 billion in weapons and bombs to do it.

A new report found that U.S. taxpayers funded 70 percent of Israel’s attacks over the last year that have left at least 170,000 people killed or injured in Gaza and Lebanon, even though a majority of Americans support an immediate ceasefire.

The Biden administration wants to send another $20 billion worth of military aid despite clear evidence of Israel displacing millions of people, systematically destroying Gaza’s healthcare system, blocking food and medical aid from reaching those in need, burning families alive in refugee tents, and much more. To continue arming Israel while it commits genocide and ethnic cleansing would violate federal and international law.

We cannot stand by while our tax dollars fuel this carnage. That’s why Senator Bernie Sanders has introduced Joint Resolutions of Disapproval to block new shipments of U.S.-made weapons and military equipment to Israel.

Bernie is bringing his resolutions up for a vote next week, so we need to build urgent, undeniable pressure on the Senate to pass them. Sign the petition now to tell your Senators to vote yes on the Joint Resolutions of Disapproval to block $20 billion in U.S. weapons to Israel!

Take Action

As Bernie said, “Sending more weapons is not only immoral, it is also illegal. We cannot continue to be complicit.”

This is our chance to stop the flow of weapons and bombs that Israel is using to commit horrific atrocities against humankind.

In solidarity,

Justice Democrats
