We don’t want our tax dollars to fund genocide!

Demand Members of Congress Vote NO on Israel Supplemental Appropriations Bill

November 1st, 2023 | Washington, DC - On Friday, a $14.3 billion stand-alone supplemental appropriations bill for Israel is set to be voted on, and we must overwhelm Congress to take a stand against it.

TAKE ACTION: Call & Email Your Member of Congress Now

This legislation proposes providing additional weapons to Israel, which, as we all know, have been used to further its gross violations of human rights, war crimes, and crimes against humanity. 

According to the Ministry of Interior in Gaza, six bombs, each weighing a ton of explosives, were dropped on the Jabalia refugee camp yesterday, followed by another massacre on the same camp today, destroying a residential neighborhood in the center of the camp. This proves that Israel is not heeding the Biden administration’s calls to abide by the International humanitarian law that prioritizes the protection of civilians. Since October 7th, at least 9,000 Palestinians have been murdered by Israel’s war crimes. More than two-thirds of the death toll has been civilians, with more than 3,648 children and at least 2,300 women. Additionally, 123 Palestinians have been killed by settlers and Israel Occupation Forces in the West Bank, including 39 children. 

We must call on our elected officials to vote NO to this supplemental appropriations bill for Israel. The consequences of this decision are far-reaching and touch upon issues of human rights, accountability, and the responsible, not to mention legal, use of US resources.

I urge you to make your voice heard by contacting your Member of Congress ASAP and express your concerns about this bill. Let them know that you reject funding genocide and that you expect them to stand for transparency, accountability, and responsible governance. We cannot prioritize military funding utilized to commit war crimes, the crime of genocide, and crimes against humanity over human lives.

Please take a moment to call or email your Member of Congress and ask them to vote NO on the Israel Supplemental Appropriations Bill. One Palestinian child is being killed every ten minutes in Gaza; one minute of your time can save their lives.  

Thank you for your prompt attention to this critical matter.
