I pledge to join IfNotNow in 2016 to end our community’s support for the occupation.

I pledge to join IfNotNow to end our community’s support for the occupation. Before the end of 2016, I and thousands of other American Jews will do what it takes to make sure the next President – whoever they may be – knows that the strongest movement in history to end the occupation is rising in the Jewish community.
Stand with the hundreds of us out in the streets this week, and the thousands who have been moved to action by the smear campaign against Simone Zimmerman, former Bernie Sanders' Jewish Outreach Coordinator and IfNotNow leader.
Because you can't silence a generation.
As hundreds take action this week before Passover and the smear campaign against Simone continues -- it is necessary for us to raise our voices publicly, to show that Simone is part of a growing movement that is changing the face of Judaism and will end our community’s support for the occupation.
It is clear that even the most progressive Presidential candidates this election are not ready to take on the Jewish establishment’s support of the occupation.
Bernie has stood proudly against the establishment on every other issue. There are movements that push the establishment into action and create the climate that allow him to do it -- the DREAMers and BlackLivesMatter Movement, Occupy and climate justice leaders fighting on campuses.
This is why we need you.
We are asking you today to make a public pledge to support this movement -- to make sure that the next President faces the most powerful Jewish movement to end the occupation ever in America.
The attacks on anti-occupation activists are not new, but here's what we believe: The people in our community who oppose the occupation are now more vocal and more poised to build power than ever before.
Take the pledge, and join us in the streets.
