Help Block the Bombs with This Lifesaving Bill

For Palestinians in the occupied Gaza Strip, the nightmare has not ended.

Don’t be fooled by the so-called ceasefire in the occupied Gaza Strip. Israeli forces are still killing civilians. Lifesaving aid is still being blocked. Children are still starving and freezing. Families are still combing through rubble, searching for what’s left of their homes and belongings-if anything is left at all.

This genocide has not stopped. And we must keep up the pressure on the U.S. government to stop it

Even with the so-called ceasefire that began five months ago, Palestinian families are in urgent need and remain in grave danger. Israel’s actions and policies mean that Palestinians in Gaza face a slow, calculated death.

As long as this suffering continues, so will our work. And right now, there’s a new way for you to raise your voice.

Congress has an opportunity—and a real obligation—to act. The Block the Bombs Act (H.R. 3565) would prohibit the president from transferring some of the very weapons that have been used by Israel to wipe out entire Palestinian families

And it’s gained real momentum, growing from 22 original co-sponsors to a total of 62 co-sponsors!

Amnesty has repeatedly documented how U.S.-made weapons have been used in repeated unlawful airstrikes on homes, markets, and civilian buildings — often at night while Palestinian families are sleeping.

Here’s what you need to know: by continuing to supply weapons to the Israeli government—despite overwhelming evidence of genocide, illegal occupation, and apartheid—the U.S. government risks becoming complicit more and more in these war crimes.

The U.S. can literally save lives by immediately suspending weapons transfers to the Israeli government and applying pressure to end Israel’s genocide, illegal occupation, and apartheid.

You can help block weapons transfers.
You can help demand accountability.
You can help make clear that Palestinian lives are not negotiable.
