Congress Women Barbara Lee by her silence about the Israeli-US genocide in Gaza is complicit in this slaughter. Apparently her concern about Zionist funders is more important than the children and people of Gaza.

SEPTEMBER 4TH ACTION OUTSIDE BARBARA LEE'S FUNDRAISER

TELL CONGRESSPERSONS BARBARA LEE AND KEITH ELLISON --NO MORE WEAPONS FOR ISRAEL'S OCCUPATION REGIME

What: Demonstration outside Barbara Lee's Fundraiser

where: Oakland Marriott City Center
1001 Broadway

When: Thursday, September 4th, from 6 to 8:30 pm

Congressperson Lee represents many of us in the most progressive district in the country. She calls herself a "Renegade for Justice." But when it comes to justice for the Palestinian people, she unswervingly supports "robust" US military aid for Israel's occupation regime. Each year she votes for $3.1 billion of our tax dollars going to Israel in military aid. In addition, while the recent massacre in Gaza was still raging, Lee voted for hundreds of millions of dollars MORE to enhance ISrael's Iron Dome defense system. Not a penny for the people of Gaza to defend their lives, homes, schools, hospitals, mosques or shelters from Israel's bombardment.

COME TOGETHER with a coalition of solidarity organizations and activists to call on Lee and Ellison, as leaders in the Black and Progressive COngressional Caucus, to be renegades for justice in Israel-Paleestine. BRING SIGNS!! We'll have the JVP banner.
We are 100% volunteer and depend on your participation to sustain our efforts!
