For the first time in U.S. history, there will be a vote in Congress to block weapons to Israel. Senators Bernie Sanders, Peter Welch, and Jeff Merkley have introduced Joint Resolutions of Disapproval to stop a $20 billion weapons shipment approved by the Biden administration.

Call your Senators immediately and tell them to block these weapons, and to support a full arms embargo on the Israeli government to save Palestinian lives.
