Members of the Maryland congressional delegation who took a principled stand for Palestinian human rights and accountability in U.S. foreign policy towards Israel are now under attack. TAKE ACTION to thank them for standing with humanity.
Members of the Maryland congressional delegation who traveled to Israel on an AIPAC propaganda trip during August Recess are continuing to lend cover to Israel’s ongoing human rights abuses and U.S. complicity in war crimes. CALL OUT their betrayal of our values and prioritizing foreign interests over their own constituents.
Urge Congressional Support for H.R. 3565 Block The Bombs Act.
Thank Maryland Leaders Who Chose Justice:
Representative Jamie Raskin (MD-8) cosponsored H.R. 3565 Block the Bombs Act, a critical measure to stop U.S. transfers of devastating bombs to Israel and end our complicity in war crimes against Palestinians. His position reflects a growing chorus of voices across Maryland demanding accountability.
Senators Chris Van Hollen and Angela Alsobrooks voted YES on Senator Bernie Sanders’ Joint Resolutions of Disapproval (JRDs), which sought to block U.S. weapons transfers to Israel and hold our government accountable for its role in violations of international law. Their votes demonstrate that they are paying attention to their constituents' concerns and that they value justice and human rights over unchecked military aid.
Take action to thank Rep. Raskin and Sens. Van Hollen and Alsobrooks for siding with justice and humanity.
Condemn AIPAC Propaganda Trip:
Representatives Steny Hoyer (MD-5) and Johnny Olszewski Jr. (MD-2) traveled to Israel on an AIPAC-funded propaganda trip during August recess. At a time when their constituents deserved in-district meetings and accountability, these lawmakers chose to align with an extremist lobby that bankrolls occupation, apartheid, and war crimes. Maryland voters deserve and demand representatives who prioritize their own constituents over foreign interests.
Take action to condemn Reps. Hoyer and Olszewski's betrayal of Marylanders' values promoting justice and humanity.
Urge Support for H.R. 3565 Block the Bombs Act:
Representative Raskin is the only congressmember who has cosponsored H.R. 3565 to stop U.S. transfers of devastating bombs to Israel and end our complicity in war crimes against Palestinians.
Take action to urge the rest of our congressional representatives—Rep. Andy Harris (MD-1), Rep. John Olszewski Jr. (MD-2), Rep. Sarah Elfreth (MD-3), Rep. Glenn Ivey (MD-4), Rep. Steny Hoyer (MD-5), Rep. April Delaney (MD-6), and Rep. Kweisi Mfume (MD-7)— cosponsor H.R. 3565, the Block the Bombs Act.
