DAY 18 UPDATE: Today, 2 of our Jewish hunger strikers went to @SenDuckworth’s office to demand a meeting. Instead of hearing our demands that the U.S. #StopArmingIsrael, Senator Duckworth chose to call the cops on her own constituents. Undeterred, we continue to demand #ArmsEmbargo NOW!

As US Jews, we understand that the Israeli genocide is carried out with US bombs, US funds, and US-facilitated impunity — we continue to demand a full weapons embargo now. Senator Duckworth has the power to challenge our country’s participation in these atrocities.

Today is Day 16 of our #LetGazaLive Hunger Strike. Israel killed at least 113 people in Gaza today. What will it take for our elected representatives stand up and stop arming a genocide? #StopStarvingGaza #StopArmingIsrael

Today is Day 15, as we enter our 3rd week of the #LetGazaLive hunger strike. Our members of congress must stop the flow of U.S. arms & funding to a military that is starving 2 million people and shooting when they seek food aid #StopStarvingGaza #StopArmingIsrael
