I am writing to urge you to support the upcoming Joint Resolutions of Disapproval (JRDs) to block arms transfers to Israel. These resolutions would prevent the transfer of offensive weapons—such as joint direct attack munitions (JDAMs), tank shells, and mortars—that are being repeatedly used in densely populated areas, resulting in civilian casualties and furthering a genocidal occupation by Israel. Now is the time to stand on the right side of history, along with most countries around the world and on the side of the majority of your constituents who want an immediate and permanent ceasefire by Israel. By blocking these arms transfers, the U.S. can take a clear stance against ongoing violence that history will not judge kindly. I implore you to act with moral courage and vote in favor of the JRDs to ensure that American arms are not used to further this humanitarian crisis. Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter.
