Friend, Did you see my last email?
Reps. Greg Meeks (D-NY) and Michael McCaul (R-TX), as well as Sens. Bob Menendez (D-NY) and Jim Risch (R-ID), recently introduced the Stop Iranian Drones Act in Congress. The goal: Protect the U.S., Israel and other American allies from Iran’s increasing drone attacks.
This common sense legislation passed the House 424 - 2 in April, and is now awaiting passage in the Senate. We know that the best way to pass the Stop Iranian Drones Act is to contact our senators directly and demonstrate the power of the pro-Israel community. Can we count on you to send a letter right now? |
Thank you, Jeff Mendelsohn Executive Director Pro-Israel America |

Friend, We are all aware of the threat that Iran represents to Israel, our greatest ally in the Middle East, not to mention other nations around the world. But lately, that threat has increased. In 2018, Iran launched an explosive-laden drone into Israeli territory for the first time. Since then, militant group Hezbollah has repeatedly used Iran-supplied drones in its attacks on Israel. And over the last year, Iranian drone attacks on U.S. forces in Syria and Iraq have also increased. |
That’s why Reps. Greg Meeks (D-NY) and Michael McCaul (R-TX), as well as Sens. Bob Menendez (D-NY) and Jim Risch (R-ID), introduced the Stop Iranian Drones Act earlier this year. The bill — passed by the House of Representatives in April and awaiting approval in the Senate — expands pre-existing sanctions on those who supply or transfer weapons to Iran to include drones.
It also establishes that it is U.S. policy to prevent Iran, and terrorist or militia groups aligned with Iran, from acquiring drones that can be used to attack the U.S. or its allies. This common sense legislation is key to protecting the U.S. AND Israel — and the need for such a bill is only becoming greater.
Friend, it’s time to make your voice heard. Click the link below to send a letter to your senator urging them to vote yes on the Stop Iranian Drones Act.
