Tell Congress to back Senator Bernie Sanders's proposal to block a $20 billion weapons sale to Israel!

Petition to Congress: We urge you to support Senator Sanders's resolution to stop the $20 billion weapons sale to Israel. It's a crucial and necessary step to end the war on Gaza. ADD YOUR NAME Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is threatening to force Palestinian civilians out of northern Gaza. Another wholesale act of violence against 300,000 Palestinians in the northern part of the Gaza Strip who've endured nearly a yearlong Israeli bombing campaign. At the same time, Israel has launched devastating attacks against Lebanon, killing over 500 people. Days ago, the Israeli army remotely exploded electronic devices in the grocery stores, streets, homes, and buses of Lebanon, killing 37, including 2 children, and injuring thousands. While Netanyahu travels to the U.S. to make a speech in front of the United Nations this week, Senator Bernie Sanders is calling for an end to U.S. weapons support for Israel's mass violence in Gaza and Lebanon. Sign the petition: Tell Congress to get behind Senator Bernie Sanders's resolution to stop a $20 billion weapons sale to Israel! We need our lawmakers to change U.S. policy towards Israel immediately. These latest atrocities in Gaza and Lebanon come after Israel's war against the Palestinian people has killed over 41,000 civilians. As long as the United States is supplying bombs and other weapons to Israel, our government is supporting Netanyahu's devastating campaign. "Much of this carnage in Gaza has been carried out with U.S.-provided military equipment," Sen. Sanders said. He added, "Providing more offensive weapons to continue this disastrous war would violate U.S. and international law." Bernie's campaign is a direct repudiation of the months and months that the Biden administration and Congress have continued their funding and weapons support of Netanyahu's regime. Hamas's attacks beginning on October 7 must be condemned but Israel's response has been disproportionate and taken an extraordinary civilian toll — all while America has supplied the bombs and funding Israel has used to kill tens of thousands of Palestinians. If enough of Congress gets behind this resolution, it could lead to a major shift in U.S. policy on Gaza and send a strong signal to Netanyahu. Sign the petition: No more American weapons for Netanyahu's violence against the Palestinian and Lebanese people. ADD YOUR NAME Paid for by DEMAND PROGRESS   Sent via ActionNetwork.org.
