Thank Bernie Sanders and the Senators who voted YES to blocking arms to Israel
(If you are not a constituent of any of the Senators who voted yes, you can still thank them here.)
In a historic vote, 19 U.S. Senators stood with Sen. Bernie Sanders to block $20 billion in U.S. arms to Israel. The vote didn’t pass, but let’s be clear: the tide is turning.
Take this moment to thank the U.S. Senators who supported the Sanders resolutions and voted to block U.S. arms sales to Israel now.
There has never been a Congressional vote like this before. Let us keep building from this day and ensure Congress does its job by upholding U.S. law and ending "blank check" support to Israel.
This historic vote happened, in no small measure, because of persistent grassroots organizing and advocacy.
Poll after poll has shown that a majority of us want to end U.S. arms sales to Israel and end Israel’s war on Gaza.¹
