How many more days will this administration allow Israel to continue their genocide with no repercussions? I'm not surprised any more when I look at the news and see the daily massacre, it's been months of it at this point, but I will never stop being outraged. My tax dollars are being taken to murder people in Palestine. Instead of using that money for our infrastructure, student loan forgiveness, or literally any other measure that would actually improve the lives of Americans, this administration has decided to give it to Israel.
Over the last 24 hours today, 8/14, 36 Palestinians have been murdered in Gaza, the bulk of which from central and southern Gaza in areas Israel had directed people to evacuate to. This is absolutely unacceptable.
I demand that you:
– Hold Israel accountable for a permanent, immediate ceasefire, their violations of the Genocide Convention, and gross human rights violations by any means necessary
– Call for the immediate end of Israel’s occupation and apartheid and support Palestinians in their fight for freedom and peace
– Secure the immediate release and safety of all Palestinians who have been abducted and held captive by Israel, including those whose indefinite detention began prior to 10/7
– Permanently end all monetary, diplomatic, and military aid given to Israel and enforce Leahy Law
– Reallocate all funds given to Israel and commit additional resources for ongoing humanitarian relief for Palestinians starting with immediately resuming funding of UNRWA
– Immediately withdraw all U.S. troops, military assets, and all other assets deployed throughout the Middle East and cease all actions that further escalate a larger regional conflict
– Pass legislation that voids all anti-BDS laws at the federal level
– Vote no on H.R. 7521 and any similar legislation proposed
