The continuation of massive arms sales to Israel while it unilaterally blocks humanitarian aid to Gaza is a clear violation of US law and sets a dangerous precedent. With tens of thousands of Palestinians facing malnutrition and starvation due to Israel's restrictions, it is unconscionable for the US to provide further military support. The administration's decision to greenlight this $20 billion arms deal despite its own findings underscores the need for Congressional oversight. I urge you to support Senator Sanders' Joint Resolutions of Disapproval to block the transfer of offensive weapons that enable Israeli aggression and human rights abuses. Diplomatic pressure, not additional arms, is the path to achieving a just resolution and upholding American values of human rights. Congress must act to enforce the law and cease arming Israeli atrocities in Gaza.
