New Jewish Narrative

In our narrative, peace and justice are the birthright of Israelis, of Palestinians, and of all people... We are New Jewish Narrative!

This morning, Senator @ChrisVanHollen announced his candidacy to become the next Senate Majority Leader.

Last month, NJN presented him with the Congressional Champion of Justice Award at our gala.

Watch his remarks from our gala for a glimpse of the type of leader he would be.

Especially now, we won't leave Palestinian farmers to face settler terror alone. Next Friday, November 20, we'll head to the West Bank to harvest olives alongside Palestinian farmers. Along with our friends from @rabbis4HR. Sign up in the first comment.

Senator Chris Van Hollen is being considered for Senate majority leader.

NJN's Hadar Susskind says Van Hollen would “meet the moment” and “prioritize and steer toward real, meaningful things that can leverage U.S. influence” as majority leader.

If you’re curious about what drove the high voter turnout among Palestinian citizens of Israel in the recent elections, my new article begins to unpack the dynamics behind this surge in political participation.

For every $36 donated, NJN will deliver a copy of The Future Is Peace to a new Member of Congress.

NJN launched this campaign in February and delivered hundreds of books. We're excited to be bringing it back for the incoming class!

The Knesset sworn in today has the opportunity to change course.

[New Jewish Narrative @NJNarrative]

Israeli settlers brutally attacked 40 protective solidarity activists helping Palestinian farmers with the olive harvest, wounding six people.

Standing with Palestinians and advocating for their right to harvest should never be met with violence.

Diaspora Jews are calling on Israel's Jewish and Arab party heads to form a coalition for change and repair.

The consensus on Israel is shifting within the Democratic party. As House Speaker, Congressman Hakeem Jeffries will need to meet the moment.

@peacenowisrael reports: the Israeli government has published tenders for 823 new settlement housing units.

“A government that lost the elections and lost the public’s trust continues to establish facts on the ground and endanger Israel’s future.”

This night, which has come to be known as Kristallnacht, was a state-sponsored pogrom dressed up as random violence. It followed years of antisemitism left unchecked, and marked an escalation of the persecution of European Jews.

Never again.

88 years ago today, Nazis and their supporters burned over 1,400 synagogues, vandalized and broke into thousands of Jewish businesses and homes, killed several hundred Jews, and imprisoned roughly 30,000 in concentration camps.

Senator Schatz is right. Israel needs to treat aid for Gazans -- and Gaza's reconstruction -- as an urgent need. This cannot be a bargaining chip for negotiations.

[Brian Schatz @brianschatz]

Tens of thousands of Palestinians have been displaced and 5 are dead due to flooding in Gaza this weekend. More than half a million children lack safe shelter as winter begins. The Israeli government must allow building materials and winter supplies into Gaza immediately.

The American people expect Congress to no longer turn a blind eye to the horrors taking place in Gaza and the violent land grab happening in the West Bank.

That’s why I’m carrying the Stop the Settlements Act to impose sanctions on any individual or institution driving settlements in the West Bank or Gaza. Under our new Democratic Majority, it should be taken up for a vote in the new Congress.

BREAKING: Israeli authorities have demolished nearly half the structures in Bir al-Maskub, a Palestinian Bedouin community in the planned E1 settlement area east of Jerusalem, which could mark the start of on-the-ground implementation of E1.
