Stand for justice and divest from occupation
As a Jewish American inspired by my culture’s tradition of social justice, I am asking you to take a brave stand and vote for selective divestment from companies that benefit from the occupation. It is the most powerful, nonviolent way we have as Americans to pressure the Israeli government to end its occupation. Only through ending the occupation will we have a chance for a lasting peace between Israelis and Palestinians that will benefit all of us.
