DESCRIPTION:Call to action: pack the City Council meeting! Demand a ban on authorized 
 city travel to Israel!\n\nSan Jose - you pressured the City Council to 
 release a letter calling for peace in Gaza. This letter was a direct result 
 of your action.\n\nBut we can't stop there - we need concrete action from 
 the City Council.\n\nIn 2022, the City Council blocked then-Mayor Sam 
 Liccardo from traveling to Qatar due to concerns about the country’s 
 human rights record.\n\nHowever, previous trips to Israel have been 
 authorized by the City Council - Mayor Liccardo traveled to Israel in 2019 
 to learn about “critical policy issues affecting both Israel and the 
 United States.”\n\nOver the past 3 months, Israel has killed over 25,000 
 innocent civilians, bombed hospitals, starved the people of Gaza, and 
 committed countless other human rights violations against the Palestinian 
 people.\n\nThe City Council must take action in line with their 
 well-established concerns over countries’ human rights abuses and ban 
 authorized travel to apartheid Israel!\n\nJoin us at the next City Council 
 meeting on Tuesday, February 6 at 1:30pm at San Jose City Hall or on Zoom 
 (https://sanjoseca.zoom.us/j/94558095100). Make a public comment demanding 
 a ban on authorized travel to Israel!\n\nThis action is part of the U.S. 
 Palestinian Community Network\nNational Week of Action.\n
