During this challenging time, your financial support of AIPAC and the vital U.S.-Israel relationship is more important than ever.
You—along with other AIPAC supporters—understand that the dangers Israelis face from enemies who want to destroy the Jewish state have in no way abated in the face of COVID-19.
And if we don’t work with our leaders in Washington, Israel may not have the resources to keep its citizens safe when it is needed most.
For years, the United States and Israel have strengthened each other through a commitment to shared values and vision for a safer world. And today, as COVID-19 continues to spread, this commitment endures:
Israel's National Emergency Management Authority (NEMA) and its American counterpart (FEMA), have established a cooperation mechanism to fight the coronavirus pandemic.
Israel's Sheba Medical Center and America's National Institutes of Health (NIH) joined forces to find treatments to fight coronavirus.
Israeli innovators are working to advance virus detection technology, utilize antibodies from patients who have recovered from coronavirus, and produce much-needed ventilators at a fraction of the cost.
But this vital U.S.-Israel cooperation cannot be taken for granted. It is the result of decades of hard work with our country's leaders through the efforts of AIPAC members like you.
Today, the United States and Israel continue to face challenges beyond COVID-19.
In the weeks and months ahead, we must be ready to work with Congress to oppose attacks against Israel at the International Criminal Court (ICC), extend the U.N. arms embargo on Iran, and support continued U.S. security assistance to ensure Israel has the resources needed to defend herself, by herself.
