A growing coalition of lawmakers is openly questioning and opposing offensive military aid to Israel — and it means our movement to end the violence and suffering in Gaza is gaining crucial power.

This leadership is crucial to ensuring U.S. weapons and assistance are not used to harm people in Gaza — and it wouldn’t have happened without activists like you all over the country working so hard to push them to do it. Even though our coalition is growing, the majority of Congress is still supporting unconditional military aid to Israel. That’s why we need to keep going.
Gratitude goes a long way and we’re organizing a thank you message to members of Congress who are leading the charge to put conditions on offensive military aid to the Israeli government. If we want to see more actions like this, these members need to hear from you now.
