Tens of thousands of Palestinians have been killed and millions displaced. The people of Gaza are struggling to survive through the genocide due to a lack of food, water, electricity, and medical supplies. From Gaza to Jenin, we've witnessed Israel's massacres of Palestinians again and again. We've watched U.S. politicians ignore, minimize, and sometimes even sanction Israel's mass killings.

Now, further escalation from Israel in Lebanon endangers more lives. Within one day, Israel has killed hundreds of people in Lebanon, violently forcing families to evacuate and destroying their homes. Israel is on a total rampage of death and destruction in order to spark a bigger regional war.

Stop the expansion of the genocide! These massacres are funded into existence by our U.S. tax dollars, with a blank check for $3.8+ billion to the Israeli military every year. Now, the U.S. has approved $20 billion in weapons sales to Israel and announced plans to send additional troops to the region.

Call out the U.S. government's complicity. We don't want empty words - Israel will continue their violent campaign until the U.S. ends the flow of funding and weapons that enable their massacres. Demand an END TO SENDING WEAPONS TO ISRAEL AND A PERMANENT CEASEFIRE NOW.

TAKE ACTION: Demand that your members of Congress push to #StopArmingIsrael now. Call your members of Congress and demand:

• An IMMEDIATE end to U.S. weapons and military funding to Israel
• Permanent ceasefire now & end the genocide
• Restore funding for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) that provides life-saving aid to Palestinian refugees

Additionally, Senator Bernie Sanders has introduced a join resolution of disapproval to stop the $20 billion weapons sale to Israel. Ask your senators to also support this important effort to stop the bombs.
