Tell Congress: No More Military Funding And Weapons For Israel, And We Still Demand A Ceasefire

Hello, my name is [Name], and I am a resident of [State].

I am calling to express my strong opposition to the proposed $14 billion military aid package for Israel and to urge [Senator] to vote against it. Given the current hardships faced by many Americans at home and Palestinians abroad, it’s crucial not to send weapons to a government that has killed thousands of innocent civilians in Gaza. A permanent ceasefire and a negotiated political solution are the only viable path out of this crisis.

Our Congress has yet to secure a permanent funding bill for the 2024 fiscal year, yet Congress has somehow found the consensus to send a substantial amount of aid overseas. American weapons should not be implicated in war crimes and the bombing of civilians. Israel has already killed more than 16,000 Palestinians, of whom over 70 percent are women and children.

As a constituent, I believe that our resources should be used to support our communities at home and promote peace abroad, not to aid military operations that kill so many innocent civilians. Supporting this aid package sends a terrible message about our nation’s priorities and values, and, even worse, implicates us directly in the murder and occupation of innocent Palestinian civilians.

I hope [Senator] will consider my perspective and the perspectives of over 68% of Americans who share these concerns. We count on your leadership to make decisions that reflect our values of compassion, justice, and responsibility at home and in the global community.

In conclusion, oppose the upcoming supplemental package and publicly call for a permanent ceasefire.

Thank you for your time; I look forward to seeing [Senator]’s actions.
