The good news? One anti-Muslim, anti-Palestinian AIPAC mega-donor, Adam Milstein, won’t be speaking at AIPAC’s conference – after getting caught and reprimanded for hate-tweeting at Representatives Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib.
The bad news is that the room will be full of people who find no moral problem with hosting many other speakers like him. That’s why we’re running ads to tell Members of Congress to #skipAIPAC.
Netanyahu says that Israel is a “Nation-State of the Jewish people and them alone,” openly proclaiming what Israel-advocates like AIPAC pretend not to be true – that Israel is not a democracy for 1/5 of its population: Palestinians.
AIPAC’s anti-Palestinian stances have never been clearer, but apparently some Members of Congress aren’t paying attention or just don’t care. Many are set to roll out the welcome mat and contribute to their program.
ENOUGH! AIPAC’s morally bankrupt politics are one of the biggest obstacles to justice and equality for all in Israel/Palestine – so we’re challenging them head on: putting up mobile billboards across DC urging our representatives to #skipAIPAC.
But if we’re going to get them up in time, we need to raise $15,000 in the next 24 hours. Can you make an urgent contribution right now to help us make it happen?
AIPAC doesn’t speak for us – and we know from polling that they don’t speak for an increasing number of Jews who want freedom, justice and equality for all in Israel/Palestine.
AIPAC knows that young Jewish Americans are abandoning them like never before and that their power is waning. So they’re desperate to make the conference this weekend an enormous public demonstration of their political power – and we can flip that on its head.
We’ve only got 24 hours to raise the funds we need to get these mobile billboards on the road. Donate whatever you can right now to help us reach the $15k goal.
Let’s do this!

P.S. In addition to truck ads we have an online toolkit for activists to engage with their Members of Congress. Take a look.
