Tensions between Trump and Netanyahu have reached new heights. Hours after Trump vowed: "I call all the shots" and told Israel not to bomb Iran, Israel bombed anyway. And yet, Congress is quickly moving ahead with a TERRIFYING provision in the new Pentagon budget that would tie the U.S. to the Israeli military more than ever before.
If this passes, it won’t just mean sending more taxpayer dollars to Israel – it would mean co-producing weapons, turning the U.S. military’s data into the Israeli military’s data too, and greenlighting UNPRECEDENTED Israeli influence on the U.S. – all with less oversight than ever before.
We cannot let them sneak this through – but to stop it, we need to overwhelm Congress with opposition to this toxic merger right now.
Tell Congress now: Strip Section 224 from the Pentagon Budget – NO to an unchecked US-Israel weapons merger!
Polling shows public distrust of the Israeli government has skyrocketed. Together, we watched in horror as violence across Gaza killed tens of thousands of men, women, and children. And now, Netanyahu and Trump are sparring publicly over who is in charge.
Section 224 would make it all MUCH worse. Netanyahu has called it "my plan" – putting the U.S. on the hook for even more US-made bombs, more joint surveillance operations, and more weapons stampeding through the export pipeline – all without public oversight or accountability.
Congressional leaders are banking on the fact they can sneak this through with little attention. They want to keep these deals in the dark, far from public scrutiny.
Both Our Revolution ally Rep. Ro Khanna and Rep. Thomas Massie have promised to fight it on the floor – and it’s going to take ALL of us to make sure enough members of Congress join them to stop this dangerous plan.
If we don’t make enough noise NOW, this could become law without a public fight. Our Revolution was built to shine a spotlight on exactly this kind of backroom dealmaking. Your voice can help expose and stop this before it’s too late.
Add your name RIGHT NOW to tell Congress: No new US-Israel military-industrial merger!
When we organize, we win.
Our Revolution
