[SOLIDARITY] Call on our Senators: No More Arms to Israel!

This is a solidarity event from our allies resisting the Palestinian genocide

Israel’s genocide in Gaza, carried out with US planes, bombs, tanks, and shells, is continuing to escalate, with now the entirety of north Gaza, including the former location of Gaza City, turned into a free fire zone where anyone that moves is bombed and shot and where no foot or resources are allowed in.

U.S. arms deliveries violate both the Arms Export Control Act and the Lahey Law, but Secretary of State Blinken’s lies to Congress have allowed the U.S. to continue to supply the genocide.

Senator Bernie Sanders has introduced six Joint Resolutions of Disapproval (JRD’s) in the Senate (S.J.Res.111 to S.J.Res.116) to block delivery of U.S. arms that Israel has used to carry out war crimes. Massachusetts Senators Warren and Markey have not made their positions clear. We call on our Senators to sign on to these resolutions immediately so that other Senators will know that they, too, must step forward or be held accountable by history. Read more about the JRD’s and about the National Days of Action Nov. 14-28 to support them.

We will rally in front of Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Sen. Ed Markey’ offices at the JFK Federal Building in downtown Boston, and at their offices at 1550 Main St., Springfield, on Wednesday, Nov. 13, 12:30 pm, to deliver letters signed by some 90 Massachusetts organizations and 1,000 individuals, calling on them to support the JRD’s. Join us there!
