We must take action to end the unjust and oppressive occupation of Palestinian territories by Israeli forces. The proposed $6 billion arms sale to Israel, including advanced fighter jets and munitions, would only serve to perpetuate this illegal occupation and enable further violence against civilians in Gaza. As a cosponsor, you have the power to block this arms deal and send a strong message that the United States will not subsidize the subjugation of the Palestinian people or turn a blind eye to human rights abuses. I urge you to cosponsor this bipartisan resolution disapproving of the arms sale in order to promote peace, protect innocent lives, and uphold our nation's commitment to self-determination and human dignity for all. The path forward requires dialogue and diplomacy, not more deadly weaponry used against an occupied population. Stand on the right side of history by cosponsoring this measure.
