Rashida and Pramila’s resolutions to block arms sales to Israel

Harris,

This week, Justice Democrats Rep. Rashida Tlaib and Rep. Pramila Jayapal are joining Senator Bernie Sanders in reintroducing resolutions to stop all arms sales to Israel ASAP.

Will you sign our petition to support them before Congress votes on their resolutions as soon as today?

Since Israel's government ended the ceasefire and renewed its indiscriminate attacks on Gaza, they've killed another 700 people and pushed the total Palestinian death toll over 50,000 – nearly a third being under 18 years old.

On top of that, the Israeli military is still targeting health care and humanitarian aid workers. They are still burying victims in shallow mass graves. And they are still blocking all food, medicine, and other aid from entering Gaza, causing mass starvation and suffering.

What is happening in Gaza is nothing short of genocide and ethnic cleansing. The United States should be doing everything in its power to stop this, not continue supplying the bombs and weapons to carry it out.

By forcing a vote on the resolutions to block arms sales to Israel, we have a chance to stop our country from being complicit in these crimes against humanity.

So Harris, will you sign our petition demanding Congress block any new weapons sales to Israel until a permanent ceasefire is reached and aid to Gaza is restored?

Sign the Petition

In solidarity,

Justice Democrats
