Tell Congress: Don’t Let Trump “Own” Gaza
Progressive Democrats of America and Action Network
(February 5, 2025) — Progressive Democrats of America and our allies are committed to organize day and night, night and day to force Donald Trump to 100% renounce his plan to use the US military to complete a genocide by ethnically cleansing the Gaza Strip of Palestinians.
We expect all good people of conscience to join with us opposing Trump’s unhinged statements made during his press conference beside the war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu. These statements were so outrageous (even given Trump’s absurd standards) that it was hard not to feel they were a surreal lampoon.
There he was, the President of the United States, openly calling for our country to perpetrate genocide — in order to build ‘a new Riviera.’ But this is no joke. It’s reality; and it’s as treacherous a moment as can be imagined. We will not hesitate for one moment. The organizing begins now.
Please contact your Senators and Representative. Use this action alert to send them emails, and then follow up with a phone call. Use the Capitol Hill switchboard (202) 224-3121. A
sk the operator to connect you with their office, then ask to speak with or leave a message for the staffer working on foreign affairs and/or the chief of staff. Tell them to speak out against Trump’s reckless plans to attack Gaza.
Share this action alert with your family, friends, co-workers, and everyone you know. We must stand with the Palestinian people and their right to land, self-determination, human and civil rights, and the full protection of international law. We must and will do everything in our power to block a US invasion of Gaza and, together, we will succeed.
THE LETTER
Tell Congress: “Don’t Let Trump Attack Gaza”
Please express your outrage at Trump’s comments threatening to attack and ethnically cleanse Gaza. On February 4th, Trump said:
The US will take over the Gaza Strip, and we will do a job with it too. We’ll own it and be responsible for dismantling all of the dangerous unexploded bombs and other weapons on the site, level the site, and get rid of the destroyed buildings, level it out, create an economic development that will supply unlimited numbers of jobs and housing for the people of the area.
This is outrageous and unacceptable. Tell your Senators and Representative to speak out now and to resolve to renounce these threats. Insist they act now to prevent any use of US military force against Gaza.
