Urge Fetterman to Support Palestinian Rights and Self-Determination
To: Sen. Fetterman
From: A constituent in Plymouth Meeting, PA
March 31, 2025
Given John Fetterman's consistent opposition to criticism of Israel's human rights violations and apartheid policies against Palestinians, it is crucial to urge him to reconsider his stance. The occupation and oppression of Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and West Bank have been widely condemned by international human rights organizations and legal experts as violating international law. By refusing to acknowledge or speak out against these injustices, Fetterman is enabling the perpetuation of an unacceptable status quo of discrimination, violence, and deprivation of basic rights. As an elected representative, he has a moral obligation to stand for human rights and dignity for all people, not turn a blind eye to well-documented abuses and apartheid practices. A change in Fetterman's position to one supporting Palestinian rights and self-determination is imperative to uphold principles of justice, equality, and human decency.
