Fight back against Trump's Gaza land grab & Israel’s “Operation Iron Wall”
1 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!
As a voting constituent in your district, I demand immediate action to both 1) stop Trump's Gaza land grab plan and 2) end Israel's violent military assault on Jenin refugee camp, ethnic cleansing of Masafer Yatta, and escalating violence across the West Bank.
Trump has just threatened to permanently expel all 2 million Palestinians from Gaza, claiming that the U.S. will "take over" the land. This plan is clearly an illegal and immoral settler colonial land grab. Meanwhile, Israeli forces have violently invaded Jenin and forced out 30,000 Palestinians from their homes, killing Palestinian people including 2-year-old Laila al-Khatib, who was shot in the head while eating dinner with her family.
The military assault in Jenin includes:`
- Blocking all entrances to Jenin city and refugee camp
- Burning down homes while blocking emergency responders
- Cutting power and fuel to hospitals
In Masafer Yatta, over 1,000 Palestinians—including 500 children—face the threat of forced displacement, which the UN confirms would constitute a war crime. Settlers constantly terrorize the native Palestinian farmers who live there, injuring them and burning their property.
The UN human rights office warns that Israel is using "methods developed for war fighting" against civilians. These actions directly violate international law and U.S. laws governing military funding provided to foreign countries.
I urge you to:
1. Publicly reject Trump’s threat to “clean out” or ethnically cleanse native Palestinians from Gaza, and oppose all land grabs. Issue a statement condemning Israel’s deadly assault on Jenin, ethnic cleansing in Masafer Yatta, and settler pogroms against Palestinian communities in the West Bank.
2. Support an arms embargo to immediately stop U.S. weapons transfers and military funding to Israel.
3. Call for investigations into how U.S. military funding enables these attacks.
I look forward to your response on these urgent matters affecting U.S. policy and human rights.
