Dear John xxxxxx,

Senator Bernie Sanders and his Senate colleagues introduced three Joint Resolutions of Disapproval (JRD) to stop $20 billion in U.S. weapons transfers to Israel, which have been linked to indiscriminate use and mass civilian casualties in Gaza and Lebanon.

Last week, 18 Senators stood up for accountability  voting in favor of blocking arms to Israel, but the JRDs ultimately failed to pass.

What Now: It is critical that your Senators hear from you. They must know your stance on their decision to either  support  or  oppose  blocking arms to Israel. As your elected leaders, they need to know where their constituents stand.

Proposed arms sales must comply with U.S. laws, including the Arms Export Control Act, the Foreign Assistance Act, and the Leahy Law. The crisis in Gaza and Lebanon has already claimed thousands of civilian lives, many of them women and children. We commend the 18 Senators who supported these resolutions, recognizing their importance in preventing further civilian harm, upholding the law, and championing human rights.  

Take Action Today: Join us in acknowledging those who stood on the right side of history. Use this platform to automatically send a letter of "approval" or "disapproval" to your Senators based on their vote regarding continued arms sales to Israel.

In solidarity,

 

Iman Awad
