The images and videos surfacing showing the magnitude of destruction Israel has left in its wake at Al-Shifa, Nasser, and other hospitals in northern and central Gaza has been horrific. Every single day I keep thinking I've seen and heard the worst, but every new day brings new horrors. This is not and never has been a war. This is genocide.
Stop sending weapons and money to Israel now.
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
