Dear Friends,
This week’s elections put two issues front and center. In California, the most populous state in the country, people voted on measures to preserve our democracy. In New York City, the city with more Jews than anywhere else in the nation, voters went to the ballot box with Israel top of mind.
With pro-democracy movements winning across the country, one thing is clear: the fate of our democracy and the American Jewish relationship with Israel will both play major roles in the national elections ahead. J Street will be at the epicenter of this.
If you want to have a voice in preserving our democracy and championing a pro-Israel, pro-peace foreign policy, we need you to join us from February 28 to March 3 2026 in Washington, DC for our National Convention – the largest gathering of our movement in several years.
At a time of major upheaval on both sides of the Atlantic, our movement will come together to amplify the power we’ve already created. With engaging speakers from the US, Israel, the Region and beyond, collaborative sessions with partner organizations, networking opportunities and the chance to take our advocacy straight to Capitol Hill, this is a moment you won’t want to miss! We need you there – because the Convention will shape our work in 2026 and beyond.
Register for the Convention TODAY>>

Together, we’ll chart the course for the work ahead and seize the opportunity for progress this moment brings. Stand with us – register now and be part of shaping the future at our Convention!
