An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Show your humanity, not your continued apathy.

14 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!

The situation in Gaza is urgent and demands your immediate, uncompromising action. In the last 24 hours alone, Israeli forces have bombed tents in Gaza, killing mostly children. This ongoing brutality must be confronted without delay. Our elected officials must be held accountable to stop this violence now. As the Christmas season approaches, in Bethlehem—the birthplace of Jesus located in the West Bank—Palestinians continue to endure apartheid. Israel illegally occupies Palestinian land, restricts movement, arrests children, and kills with impunity. Right now, in Gaza, genocide continues unabated. In the last 24 hours, Israel bombed tents, killing mostly innocent children. As my elected representative, you must act immediately: Take a firm pledge to reject AIPAC’s influence and agenda. Demand Israel allow doctors, aid workers, and humanitarian assistance to enter Gaza without obstruction. Insist that medical supplies, resources, and equipment for rebuilding Gaza be permitted immediately. Demand that Israel allow journalists from outside Palestine to enter and report freely on the conditions on the ground.** Push Congress to cut off all U.S. tax dollars and weapons funding to Israel until this violence ends. Your silence on these matters is screams of detachment and apathy. Now is the time to step up and take responsibility and action. This is a critical moment for justice and humanity. Your urgent leadership is required now. Do not delay—lives depend on your immediate action.
