United Voices is urging every member of Congress to reject the Trump administration’s proposed $6 billion weapons sale to Israel, warning that approving the deal means signing off on the continued killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza.
At least 12 children were among 41 Palestinians killed in Israeli bombardments of Gaza in a single day. Seven more people died from Israel’s forced starvation over the same 24 hours, bringing the total starved to death to 420, including 145 children. The overall death toll in Gaza has surpassed 65,000 — with Israeli intelligence’s own data showing 83 percent were civilians.
After a seven-day fact-finding mission to Gaza’s border, the West Bank, Egypt, and Jordan, Senators Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) and Jeff Merkley (D-OR) released a landmark report accusing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of overseeing a campaign of ethnic cleansing against the Palestinian people — and implicating the United States government as complicit through its continued military support. United Voices is amplifying their findings.
United Voices applauds U.S. Senators Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) and Jeff Merkley (D-OR) for traveling to the Middle East and attempting to enter Gaza to witness the humanitarian catastrophe firsthand — and is calling on more members of Congress to follow their lead and use every legislative tool available to end the U.S.-backed blockade.
United Voices is calling on the United Nations, the Trump administration, and every government committed to human rights to immediately halt Israel’s announced plan to forcibly remove Palestinians from northern Gaza — a textbook act of ethnic cleansing that violates international law and is being carried out as thousands of civilians already face starvation.
During the August congressional recess, 14 Democrats and 20 Republicans skipped their constituents and traveled to Israel on trips funded by AIPAC’s American Israel Education Foundation — meeting with Israeli President Isaac Herzog and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu while Gaza’s death toll surpassed 61,000. United Voices is publishing the names.
The death toll from Israel’s forced starvation of Gaza has reached 175 people — 93 of them children. On the same day that number was reported, Israeli forces killed at least 92 people including dozens of aid seekers, and Israeli extremists staged a provocative intrusion on the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound. United Voices is documenting the compounding horror.
Washington, D.C. – [2/14/2025] – United Voices calls on President Donald Trump to immediately abandon any plans to forcibly expel nearly two million Palestinians from Gaza or to impose unilateral American control over the territory. Such actions would constitute a grave violation of human rights and international law, effectively amounting to ethnic cleansing.Instead of pursuing […]
