Dear Friend,
There have been four debates this year spanning a total of fifteen hours.
In all that time, the US-Israel relationship, Palestinian rights and
America’s role in securing Mideast peace did not come up once.
Moderators did not raise the issue when Trump called liberal Jews disloyal
to Israel, when Democratic members of Congress were banned by the Israeli
government or when Netanyahu pledged to cement Israel’s occupation of the
Palestinians permanently by annexing the West Bank.
So we decided to create the conversation that’s been missing. This
weekend, at our national conference, we heard from ten presidential
candidates -- five in person and five via video messages -- on their plans
to undo the damage wrought by the Trump administration, employ US leverage
to combat settlement expansion and align US foreign policy with
progressive values.
“It’s a new era for how Democratic candidates talk about Israel,” the
Huffington Post declared. “2020 Democrats at J Street Conference Reflect
New Tone on US-Israel Relations,” read one New York Times headline.
We are immensely proud of what J Street has done to facilitate and move
the conversation on Israel. But our goal is not just to influence the tone
of the debate. Our goal is to transform America’s foreign policy.
And that’s going to take an intensive effort over the next year to ensure
that the ideas discussed on stage at our conference are reflected in the
2020 Democratic platform, are adopted by the party’s nominee and that we
ultimately help that nominee defeat Trump next November.

If you didn’t get a chance to watch our conference livestreams, you can
find the full videos of our interviews with Senator Bennet, Mayor
Buttigieg, Secretary Castro, Senator Klobuchar and Senator Sanders [ [link removed] ]on
our website. There you can also view video messages sent by Vice President
Biden, Beto O’Rourke, Senator Warren, Marianne Williamson and Andrew Yang.
I hope these videos give you a sense of how far we’ve moved the
conversation over the past decade -- and what we can accomplish together
in the coming year.
Thanks for everything you do,
Jeremy Ben-Ami
