Thank you, Senator Peter Welch, Sen. Bernie Sanders & Senator Jeff Merkley for your votes against enabling the war on Gaza. To all the Americans who called their senators before the vote, thank YOU, too. #VTpoli #ORpol
We are glad to be one of the 50+ national organizations to sign this letter to President Donald J. Trump to restore funding for humanitarian relief in Gaza. This is a moral responsibility. #UNRWA
Today we met with Vermont’s Rep. Becca Balint and David Scherr, her state director, about her work on U.S. Middle East policy. We thanked her for her recent statement opposing more U.S. offensive weapons for Israel and talked about how Congress can hold a red line on Rafah invasion.
Thank you Senator Peter Welch for leading the call for Department of State & @DeptofDefense to apply U.S. law consistently to the Israel Defense Forces. Thanks for signing on, Majority Whip Senator Dick Durbin Senator Chris Van Hollen Senator Jeff Merkley Senator Brian Schatz Sen. Bernie Sanders Martin Heinrich Senator Mazie Hirono & Tina Smith!
NEWS: 19 NGOs, incl Action Corps, ActionAid CARE (care.org) Norwegian Refugee Council OxfamAmerica have called on the 5 permanent and 10 elected members of the UN Security Council to enforce the International Court of Justice’s orders for Israel to immediately halt military ops in Rafah. Chuck Schumer👇🏽
Note Senator Todd Young’s name on this important letter along with Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Relations Committee ranking member Jim Risch. Good to see these senators speaking out for humanity.
BREAKING — Bernie Sanders has committed to introduce a Joint Resolution of Disapproval to block new $20B weapons sale to Israel. Activists secured this commitment at the senior center in Brattleboro, VT on Thursday. @NSC_Spox
🚨 Read the fact sheet on Bernie's bid for a Senate vote on US weapons for Israel. Several others (Murphy, Welch, Van Hollen) involved– a key factor in how much support this can get. Also note: -Cites Biden admin's own acknowledgement of likely war crimes sanders.senate.gov/wp-content/upl…
