Tell Your Senators: Support Sen. Bernie Sanders’ Resolutions to Block Arms to Israel
Most U.S. voters want to stop U.S. arms sales to Israel and end Israel’s war on Gaza.¹
The Biden administration hasn’t listened.
But that could be about to change.
Senator Bernie Sanders just filed “Joint Resolutions of Disapproval” (JRD) to block $20 billion in offensive U.S. arms to Israel.²
Email your Senators today:
Tell them to support the Sanders resolutions and end U.S. arms sales to Israel *NOW*.
Just a few weeks ago, President Biden approved over $20 billion of U.S. arms sales to Israel.
These sales include weaponry linked to the deaths of tens of thousands of civilians in Gaza.
The export of such weapons is clearly in violation of U.S. laws, including the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 and the Arms Export Control Act (AECA)
As of this writing, the Sanders-led Joint Resolutions of Disapproval (JRD) is the only mechanism available in Congress to prevent the most recent U.S. arms sales to Israel from advancing.
We have to act.
Take action today.
Tell your Senators to join Sen. Sanders’ efforts to stop arming Israel’s genocide.
