End U.S. Military Funding to Israel
It’s clear—the United States is the Israeli military’s biggest funder and enabler. Every year, the U.S. government writes Israel a blank check for at least $3.8 billion to fund Israel’s massive violence against the Palestinian people. That amount skyrocketed to at least $17.9 billion in 2024.
Rather than using those funds to care for our communities, our government uses taxpayer dollars to enable the Israeli military to kill Palestinians, destroy their homes, and steal their native land.
It doesn’t have to be this way. We know that if we collectively rise, we can end the genocide and stop arming systems of violence. We know that Palestine will never be free, until we are all free.
That’s why USCPR launched our long-term campaign to end U.S. military funding to Israel, “Palestine Will Be Free: #StopArmingIsrael & Fund Our Communities.” We demand that our government fund care, not killing.
Fund Care for Our Communities
Fund what our communities really need: healthcare, housing, climate justice, economic justice, and community-led safety resources. Stop funding violent systems that harm our communities. That means raising our demands to defund the police, stop Cop Cities, abolish ICE, and end U.S. military funding to Israel. This country has more than enough resources to care for all people, especially communities of color, as we reimagine the future, as we reimagine what it really means to transform our communities.
That’s why our hope is to build enough power to #StopArmingIsrael once and for all, and pass a bill to demand the end to funding the Israeli apartheid state.

The People’s Demands
Communities of color across the U.S. have brought attention to state violence, time and time again, to educate the public on just how harmful these systems have been to people of color. Our hope is to uplift the demands of the Black, Indigenous, and all other marginalized communities who have sought funding to care for their communities.
This campaign will both educate and provide people with the tools to advocate for their communities. It will remind the people of the U.S. that we must stop enabling military occupations abroad, and instead dedicate our financial resources to the communities that really need them, including the communities most harmed by state violence.

Build Toward Justice
Justice and liberation are only possible if we stop funding all forms of state violence. In this crucial moment, as the percentage of American people who support the Palestinian people is at an all time high, we must remind our elected officials that they can do the right thing.
USCPR has created action tools and resources to help you reach out to your representatives and local community members. Our hope is to support the many voices who’ve been here long before us, and will be here long after us.
