This is Congressman Ro Khanna.
FIRST: Right-wing media accused Bernie Sanders – a proud Jewish American – of promoting antisemitism because he supported candidates willing to challenge the Israeli government and the pro-war establishment.
NOW: Paramount is accusing Mark Ruffalo of invoking antisemitic tropes after he raised serious questions about Oracle's military technology contracts, the war in Gaza, and a $111 billion media merger.
The message is clear: Speak out against the actions of Benjamin Netanyahu's government, challenge powerful corporations, or question the influence of billionaires – and they may try to smear you into silence.
That is wrong. My friends at the Progressive Change Campaign Committee have partnered with Mark Ruffalo for years and have launched a petition to support him and Bernie.
SIGN THE PETITION: Stand with Mark Ruffalo and Bernie Sanders against these baseless attacks.
Antisemitism is real, dangerous, and must always be confronted. Cynically weaponizing accusations of antisemitism to score political points is wrong.
Bernie and Mark refuse to be intimidated. Neither should we.
ADD YOUR NAME: Stand with Bernie Sanders and Mark Ruffalo and defend the right to speak out.
Thank you for your activism and all that you do.
In solidarity,
– Ro Khanna, Congressman, California's 17th Congressional District
