Congress: Demand an Arms Embargo NOW

To: Sen. Gillibrand, Sen. Schumer, Rep. Morelle

From: A constituent in Penfield, NY

September 17, 2024

I write as a constituent in grief and horror following the Israeli military’s ongoing massacres of Palestinian refugees sheltering in Gaza, in what the United Nations' highest court has plausibly found to be a genocide. I call on you to publicly demand and work toward an arms embargo to halt all weapons to the Israeli government immediately. There is absolutely no moral or legal justification for the atrocities and war crimes that the Israeli government is perpetrating against Palestinians. Furthermore, these attacks come after the International Court of Justice ordered Israel to halt its military offensive on Rafah. Clearly, the Israeli government believes it is above international law. The Biden administration and Congress have facilitated this genocide by continuously sending weapons and funding to the Israeli military, despite mass opposition from the American people. Your constituents call on you to end this now. We are urging Congress to enact an immediate arms embargo and to halt all military funding to the Israeli military.
