We have put together a script to contact your Representatives regarding the Joint Resolutions of Disapproval to block the sale of weapons to Israel. Use the link in the next tweet to look up your Reps & call them with encouragement to support this legislation.
Calling Script:
“I am calling today as one of your constituents to urge you to support the recent Joint Resolutions of Disapproval legislation introduced by Senator Bernie Sanders. This legislation will cease excessive arms funding to Israel and hopefully be the first step in ending Netanyahu’s genocide of the Palestinian people and new attacks on Lebanon. More than 40,000 innocent people have died by weapons sent from the United States. With your support of this legislation, we can ease the burden on those who have been constantly bombarded for nearly a year, and for many years before that. Please support the Joint Resolutions of Disapproval, as the majority of your constituents support its intention to end the terror Netanyahu and the IDF have inflicted.”

Today, with colleagues, I introduced legislation to block arms sales to Israel.
Sending more weapons to Netanyahu's extremist government is immoral & illegal: U.S. weapons are responsible for far too many civilian casualties in Gaza.
We must end our complicity in this atrocity.
BREAKING: For the first time in US history there will be a vote in Congress to block weapons to Israel.
Sending Israel weapons is a violation of US law and opposed by a majority of Americans, who are sick of seeing their tax dollars fund Israel’s war crimes against Palestinians.
