@TheRaDR @yonislater @dahliasc We're horrified. Tell the Biden Admin you want to see sustained US leadership that addresses the root causes of this violence! We EXPECT our elected officials to fight for ~the people~ and that means no more bankrolling annexation and occupation

[J Street @jstreetdotorg]

This is why the Biden administration needs to be doing everything it can to push for an immediate #ceasefire.

[J Street @jstreetdotorg]

Despite years of Trump claiming that Jews were running from the Democratic Party, our #ElectionNight poll shows the exact opposite.

Jewish voters rejected Trump by an even larger margin than in 2016.

[J Street @jstreetdotorg]

By an IMMENSE margin, Jewish likely voters in PA and FL say they trust @JoeBiden more than Trump to combat white nationalism and antisemitism and to keep American Jews safe.

Thread: J Street polls (conducted by @GBAOStrategies) in key battleground states of PA + FL show massive support for @JoeBiden over @realDonaldTrump.

Trump has just 20% support while 75% and 73% are backing Biden in PA + FL respectively.

Keep reading for links and key findings.

Black lives matter. Today, and every day.
Solidarity with protestors in Kenosha, and across the country fighting for justice for Jacob Blake and every Black person murdered or assaulted by police.

ACTION ALERT: Join us in urging the 2020 Democratic platform committee to explicitly name and oppose the occupation in their final draft.

It should not be at all controversial for the Democratic Party to do this in 2020.

Please take the time to read this beautiful thread that highlights the importance of intersectionality in the fight against anti-semitism and racism

[J Street @jstreetdotorg]

We’re pleased that the 1st draft of the Dem platform is expected to include major improvements on 2016’s, including explicit support for Palestinian rights alongside Israel’s security. At the same time, we’re concerned that the draft reportedly makes no reference to occupation.

It's "unacceptable for US tax $ to help foot the bill for an act as extreme & destructive as unilateral annexation."

APN with our partners in the Progressive Israel Network thank Senator @ChrisVanHollen and colleagues (and asks more to join them) for their leadership opposing Israeli annexation.

[Thomas L. Friedman @tomfriedman]

I hope every Democratic Senator supports @ChrisVanHollen in preventing US aid to Israel being used to support annexation https://t.co/RnrXkyPYnQ

[J Street @jstreetdotorg]

"We often say that the US-Israel relationship is strong because of our shared values, but denying the Palestinians self-determination and basic human rights is not a shared value."

[Jeremy Ben-Ami @JeremyBenAmi]

Just making sure I understand, @simonwiesenthal, you're asking us to remove an actual photo of Donald Trump, Bibi Netanyahu and their advisers at the White House because the picture - which ran in many news outlets - is anti-Semitic? This so demeans your name and mission.

What happens to private Palestinian lands in the annexed area?

.@jfederations needs to stop defending illegal annexation. We have international law. You can’t just make up new phrases and pretend that changes things.
