7/15 (Zoom) 11:30am - Attn: MA voters - Join a Zoom Meeting with Sen. Elizabeth Warren's Senior Staff re: the Urgent Crisis in the West Bank and East Jerusalem! (Rebuilding Alliance)

Tomorrow Tuesday, July 15th at 11:30am ET we will be meeting with senior staff to Sen. Elizabeth Warren for a half hour Zoom briefing — can you join us?  

Register here to join the briefing.

There is an urgent crisis in the West Bank including East Jerusalem, with an alarming 84 Palestinian schools facing demolition orders. On July 1st, the Ishkara community’s K-4 school “The Palestine Primary Co-Ed School” in the South Hebron Hills received a 7-day demolition order— putting the 140 students it serves at risk.

On June 17th, an order by the Military Commander of the West Bank declared that the military needs Firing Zone 918 for training, and that all the structures — including homes, schools and clinics —are obstacles to their military needs. This makes all five schools in Masafer Yatta vulnerable to demolition.

Congress can intervene, but they will be more likely to act if they hear from constituents.

We have a distinguished team of Israeli, Palestinian, and American lawyers, zoning-planners, human rights defenders, and activists— one of whom will be the guest speaker on the call to describe what is happening to the Palestinian schools and communities in the West Bank including East Jerusalem.

Because you are a constituent, the Senator is more likely to follow-up on your request if you're on the Zoom call. I hope you are able to join us. Your voice really matters when it comes to congressional action and numbers truly make a difference.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions you might have.

Sincerely,

Nisreen Malley
Director of Advocacy—Rebuilding Alliance
