USCPR’s Action Alert in Response to Pelosi’s Delegation to Israel Featured in Mondoweiss
Alongside 7 Democratic members of Congress, Speaker Nancy Pelosi went on a delegation to Israel to visit the Knesset on Wednesday, February 16th, 2022. This delegation comes as Israeli forces escalate violence against Palestinian people across occupied Palestine through state-sanctioned murders of Palestinian children, home demolitions, and routine, systematic attack on Palestinian lives and livelihoods.
In response, USCPR developed an action tool that condemns this delegation while asking members of Congress to vote ‘No’ to H.R. 2748/ S.1061, the Normalizing Israeli Ethnic Cleansing Act. Mondoweiss featured the following Twitter thread and action alert from USCPR:
Amid Israel's escalating ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people, @SpeakerPelosi + 7 Dems are going on a delegation to Israel.
Voice your outrage that this #ApartheidDelegation and Congress are normalizing & enabling an apartheid state.
