In 2023, our protest outside the West Hartford Colt factory pushed the Biden administration to stall a transfer of 18,000 Colt assault rifles to Israel due to human rights concerns, which the new administration has reportedly now delivered. Colt assault rifles have also been used in US mass shootings, including at the Tree of Life synagogue in 2018, and Colt is linked to gun trafficking to Mexican drug cartels. The State of Connecticut has also subsidized Colt, including through millions in forgivable loans. Whether at home or abroad, Colt profits from bloodshed, with our tax dollars. To end this genocide, we must stop arming Israel - including with deadly weapons made right in our backyard. https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/8578be9ae0687e27bf29902132270a06764519f8
