Stop the genocide. Let Gaza live. Sign the petition.
Demand action to surge lifesaving aid to Gaza and suspend arms transfers fueling atrocities.
Over nearly two years of all-out war, Israeli forces have systematically destroyed the conditions necessary for life in the Strip and are using starvation as a weapon. Arms transfers to Israel are fueling the mass killings of civilians, demolition of vital civilian infrastructure, and destruction of the health system.
Since October 2023, more than 64,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza, including 20,000 children, according to the Ministry of Health. The number of excess deaths related to the war is likely much higher due to the impacts of a shattered health system, rampant disease outbreaks, and a punishing siege choking off access to food, water, medicine, fuel, and other basic needs. The toll of physical and mental health injuries is overwhelming and will affect future generations.
We are calling on states to stop sending weapons to Israel that are being used to kill and maim Palestinians. Providing US military assistance to Israel despite its near-total siege and severe restrictions on humanitarian aid in Gaza is a violation of US law. We are demanding urgent action to comply with US law, help save lives, and ease the catastrophic suffering of Palestinians in Gaza.
Sign this petition to urge US lawmakers to:
- Secure an immediate surge in independent, lifesaving humanitarian aid to people in Gaza
- Suspend US arms transfers to Israel in compliance with section 620i of the Foreign Assistance Act
- Use US influence with Israel to ensure an end to attacks on civilians in Gaza, including attacks on health workers and hospitals
- Call for an immediate and sustained ceasefire in Gaza
