Rashida Tlaib, Pramila Jayapal, Betty McCollum, and Sen. Bernie Sanders, joined by 8 other members of Congress. The letter is committed to defund ‘annexation’ policies that deepen Israel’s separate-and-unequal apartheid system and to reduce military funding to Israel. The letter called on members of Congress to move beyond the two-state solution, and the letter said, “Israel continues to steal more Palestinian land on U.S. taxpayers’ dime only perpetuates the unjust status quo” The letter called for the adoption of legislation to end the annual US military aid to Israel, which amounts to $ 3.8 billion.
