How You Can Affect U.S. Policy by Meeting with Your Members of Congress & More



Before Israel can get this money though, all Members of Congress will have to vote to approve the budget in the fall. While Congress is on its August recess, now is the perfect opportunity for you to organize a delegation to meet with your Members of Congress to express your opposition to military aid to Israel and other critical policy issues.
