TELL SPEAKER JEFFRIES: House Democrats appointed a hardline pro-Israel hawk, Rep. Jared
Moskowitz, to a key Israel policy role. Democratic leadership is ignoring
its constituents and elevating unconditional support for Israel in
Congress. Sign the petition: No pro-Israel hawks in foreign affairs leadership!

House Democrats named a hardline pro-Israel hawk, Rep. Jared Moskowitz, to
be the lead Democrat on the Foreign Affairs Middle East and North Africa
subcommittee.^1 The position is key for setting Israel policy in the
House.

Rep. Moskowitz has consistently opposed placing conditions on military aid
to Israel. He called an Iran war powers resolution to end Trump's war the
"Ayatollah Protection Act."^2

Speaker Hakeem Jeffries and House Foreign Affairs ranking member Rep.
Gregory Meeks made this disgraceful decision despite an overwhelming
majority of Democratic voters opposing more U.S. support for Israel.^3 If
we pressure Democratic leadership, there's a chance they could reverse
this reckless decision.

House foreign policy position!

After his appointment, Rep. Moskowitz pledged to strengthen America's
relationship with Israel.^4

Poll after poll shows that voters oppose more U.S. support for Israel. A
recent Demand Progress poll shows that a clear majority of Democratic
voters think Israel has too much influence over U.S. foreign policy.

A whopping 70 percent of Democrats say that President Donald Trump is
providing too much support to the Israeli government.^5 Only 16% of
Americans support unconditional aid to Israel.^6

As Israel commits horrific atrocities in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon,
and Democratic voters stake out a clear position opposing support for the
Israeli military, Speaker Jeffries's appointment of Rep. Moskowitz is
political malpractice AND signals the continuation of U.S. government
support for Israel's genocidal violence.
