Cease Fire Now Grassroots Advocacy Meeting 

This week is big for Gaza and Congress. Congress is debating more weapons for Israel’s war crimes in Gaza.

The “security supplemental” bills are coming up. As if the now $1 Trillion annual security budget needs to be “supplemented”[1]. As always, defense contractors laugh all the way to the bank.

But there is something even more sinister going on. These bills include well over $10 billion for Israel’s war in Gaza. Giving Israel billions more for the war, while they are killing thousands, starving hundreds of thousands and displacing millions in Gaza is unconscionable.

In another example of a dysfunctional Congress, the House and Senate are voting on different versions. The House version is $17.6 billion in military aid to Israel “as well as important funding for U.S. forces in the region". The Senate version is $118 billion, for Israel as well as for border security, the "submarine industrial base", weapons for the Indo-Pacific (to “contain China”) and weapons related to Russia’s war in Ukraine.
