The Israeli military has massacred over 41,000 Palestinians in Gaza, and has now begun carrying out massacres and mass forced displacement in Lebanon. The Israeli government is bringing the entire region to the brink of full-blown war. The grief, sorrow, and pain is endless. And it is funded and enabled by the Biden administration, which continues to arm the Israeli government. Congress must intervene.
For the first time in U.S. history, there will be a vote in Congress to block weapons to Israel. Senators Bernie Sanders, Peter Welch, and Jeff Merkley have introduced Joint Resolutions of Disapproval to stop a $20 billion weapons shipment approved by the Biden administration.
Block these weapons, and support a full arms embargo on the Israeli government to save lives.
