Tell Congress to invest in Justice, not in Israeli apartheid.

Tell Congress to invest in Justice, not in Israeli apartheid.

The U.S. budget is immoral. It gives exorbitant amounts of money for militarism, while underfunding needed programs in our communities. Instead of investing in our healthcare, education, and the environment, our government is funding Israel’s oppression of the Palestinian people. U.S. tax dollars are being used by Israel to detain Palestinian children, destroy Palestinian homes, and steal Palestinian land.

Christian Zionist organizations, like Christians United for Israel (CUFI), are lobbying our representatives to invest more of our tax dollars in weapons to Israel, despite the Israeli military's many human rights abuses against Palestinians.

We must do our part to counter their efforts! Write to your representative today urging them to end Israeli military funding, and instead #Investin Justice and support Rep. Betty McCollum’s new bill.

Support Rep. McCollum's Bill, H.R.2590, to Protect Palestinians

Rep. McCollum's bill will ensure that U.S. tax dollars are not used by Israel to detain Palestinian children, destroy Palestinian homes, or steal Palestinian land. Israel imprisons around 700 Palestinian children a year; it routinely destroys Palestinian homes in the West Bank, especially East Jerusalem, leaving thousands of Palestinians homeless; and it illegally annexes more and more Palestinian land and water. All of this is being funded by our taxes!

Instead of investing in our healthcare, education, and the environment, our government is funding Israel’s oppression of the Palestinian people. This conflicts with our values and hurts us all. Our hearts are with the Palestinian people. Our nation’s budget should not go to detain more Palestinian children, destroy more Palestinian homes, or steal more Palestinian land.

Jesus teaches, "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”

I urge you to support H.R.2590, introduced by Rep. Betty McCollum to ensure that U.S. tax dollars are not used by Israel to detain more Palestinian children, destroy more Palestinian homes, or steal more Palestinian land.

Israel imprisons around 700 Palestinian children a year, with the support of U.S. tax dollars. Armed soldiers barge into homes in the middle of the night, taking children away from their parents. Israel subjects children to torture and abuse, deprives them of food and water, and denies them their right to an attorney.  U.S. Tax dollars should not fund this immoral and illegal activity!
 
Israel routinely destroys Palestinian homes in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, leaving thousands of Palestinians homeless. Israel has demolished more than 48,000 Palestinian structures since 1967, 24,000 of which are estimated to be homes. These numbers have increased  in 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2020, Israel demolished or seized 851 Palestinian structures, displacing over 1,000 Palestinians, including over 524 children. Families are often given just minutes to gather their belongings before bulldozers destroy their homes. In some cases, Palestinians are forced to even pay for the demolition of their own homes. U.S. tax dollars should not fund this immoral and illegal activity!
 
Every day, Israel illegally annexes (steals) more and more Palestinian resources, including  Palestinian land and water, devastating the Palestinian economy, and separating Palestinians from their loved ones. U.S. tax dollars should not fund this immoral and illegal activity!

Millions of Americans live without healthcare and struggle to make ends meet, despite paying their fair share in taxes. Instead of investing in our healthcare, education, and the environment, our government is funding Israel’s oppression of the Palestinian people. This conflicts with our values and hurts us all. We must have a realignment of values.

Rep. McCollum's bill will ensure that U.S. tax dollars are not used by Israel to detain more Palestinian children, destroy more Palestinian homes, or steal more Palestinian land.
