ACT NOW: Support Sen. Bernie Sanders’ Effort to Block $20 Billion in US Arms to Israel

Email your Senators today, Indiana Jones

As salaamu alaykum, Indiana Jones—

Senator Bernie Sanders is leading a historic effort to block $20 billion in arms sales to Israel. The Senate vote is expected to happen this month.

Tell Your Senators NOW, Indiana Jones:

Support Sen. Bernie Sanders' Resolutions to Block US Arms to Israel.

The U.S.'s "blank check" support of Israel has to end. The U.S. sent a record $17.9 billion to Israel in military aid this past year, with an additional $20 billion in arms sales approved by Biden over the summer.¹

Without U.S. military support, Israel could not carry out its genocidal war in Gaza — and 100,000 Palestinians might still be alive.²

Take Action: Tell your Senators to block $20 billion in arms to Israel.

Legislation like this has been introduced in Congress before but has never made it to a vote.³

With the horrors unfolding in northern Gaza, this could not be more urgent.

"The entire population of north Gaza is at risk of dying," according to the UN's acting chief of relief coordination, Joyce Msuya.⁴

A Congressional vote would make history and change a political status quo in D.C. that has put Palestinian families at graver risk every passing hour.

Please — join us now.

We have to take action right now.

Thank you for everything you do.

In solidarity,

Yasmine, Linda, Binita and the team at MPower Action
