Hi John,
Rashida Tlaib here. I recently introduced a new resolution in Congress to formally recognize the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza and end our country’s complicity in it.
Can you sign our petition today to support this resolution and demand Congress stop supporting genocide? [[link removed]]
Sponsored by 20 of my colleagues in the House of Representatives, this resolution lays out evidence showing that Israel’s actions meet the legal definition of genocide under the Genocide Convention —including the Israeli military’s own data, which says that 83% of Palestinians killed in the past two years have been civilians.
The resolution demands the U.S. follow its obligations to prevent and punish the crime of genocide —including by ending weapons transfers, stopping military aid, sanctioning Israeli officials, and holding other perpetrators of this genocide to account.
House Resolution 876 also notes that our government has sent $52 billion of our tax dollars to Israel’s genocidal military over the past two years, through military aid and weapons transfers.
And now, the Trump administration is negotiating with Israel’s government to send an additional $76 billion worth of weapons , paid for with our tax dollars.
I’m standing with the majority of Americans in demanding our government stop funding and arming the Israeli government’s genocide of Palestinians. Will you stand with us today?

Israel’s government has continually violated its so-called “ceasefire” in Gaza. And this week, the UN Security Council outrageously voted to increase Trump’s control over the U.S.-Israeli occupation of Gaza—further undermining Palestinians’ legal right to self-determination.
Already, Israel’s government has illegal control over Gaza: As intense flooding destroys the tents of hundreds of thousands of forcibly displaced Palestinians with nowhere to go, Israel’s government is blocking emergency shelter as well as food from entering Gaza. This week’s UN Security Council vote further entrenches this occupation.
Our government must urgently take action to reverse course. As the Political Director of Jewish Voice for Peace Action affirmed when endorsing my new resolution:
“For over two years, the U.S. has been a full partner in the Israeli government’s genocide against Palestinians. Presidents and members of Congress have denied and erased Israel’s ongoing atrocities in Gaza, shielded Israel from accountability in the international arena, and attempted to dehumanize Palestinians.”
She added: “Congresswoman Tlaib and the original co-sponsors joining her on this historic resolution are making clear that this complicity must come to an end.”
Please join us and the majority of Americans demanding an end to this genocide: Add your name to support my resolution today. [[link removed]]
Thank you. Together, we’ll keep fighting state violence and demanding human rights be respected—at home and abroad.
With you in the fight for life, peace, and justice,
Rashida
