Ameinu proudly endorses TheTwo State Solution Act introduced in the US House of Representatives
by Michigan Congressman Andy Levin. The Act, which was co-sponsored by 24
representatives, re-establishes the US in its traditional role as an
honest broker striving to bring peace to Israelis and Palestinians. "This
Act puts into place a number of measures that would better align US
foreign policy with the goal of achieving a two-state solution in
Israel-Palestine, something that all supporters of Israel should get
behind," said Ameinu President Kenneth Bob.
Importantly, the legislation calls out the
distinction between Israel and the Occupied Territories while
affirming security assistance to Israel. "Stipulating that US aid
will not go toward settlement expansion or toward other activities that make it
more difficult to achieve a two-state solution is an overdue clarification
that serves the cause of peace." added Bob.
Ameinu encourages all Americans who support a
two-state solution to contact their representatives and encourage them to
pass this legislation.
