Join our first event: Virtual Palestine Advocacy Days, September 27-October 1 Dear Email, As a valued supporter of American Muslims for Palestine (AMP), we are so excited to share with you the news that AMP is officially launching today an affiliated organization, Americans for Justice in Palestine Action (AJP Action). AJP Action fiercely and unapologetically lobbies for Palestinian rights. The Palestinian people are systematically oppressed by Israeli settler-colonialism, apartheid, and military occupation. They are denied their right to self-determination through Israel’s separate and unequal regime. We have a special obligation to lobby for Palestinian rights as people living in the United States, because it is our government that provides Israel with nearly unconditional and unlimited diplomatic and military support to entrench Israel’s oppression of the Palestinian people. As a new 501(c)(4) organization, AJP Action will work in a boundless capacity to oppose legislation and policy that furthers Israeli oppression, and to support legislation and policy that upholds and advances Palestinian rights. And, in the near future, we’ll be endorsing candidates for office who stand with the Palestinian people to achieve their rights. Learn more about AJP Action by checking out its new website. |

In previous years, this event was hosted by AMP, and AJP Action is grateful for a generous grant from AMP to enable it to organize the event this year. As affiliated organizations, AMP and AJP Action will be working together to continue educating, organizing, and advocating for Palestinian rights. I am so excited for the launch of AJP Action because it will enable more effective, sustained, and systematic lobbying for Palestinian rights, and help us better leverage the many political opportunities we see right now to advance the cause of Palestinian liberation and self-determination. |
