ACLU Cheers House Vote Blocking H.R. 9495
Take Action: Urge Senators to Reject Resolutions Blocking Aid to Israel
Following President Biden’s notification of Congress in August that his administration would be proceeding with arms sales to Israel, six separate Joint Resolutions of Disapproval were introduced in the Senate to block certain arms from reaching Israel. The Senate will vote on all six of these resolutions next week.
We urge you to fill out this action alert and encourage your senators to stand with our ally, Israel by opposing all six of
these harmful resolutions.
