 to stop them in their tracks.

Netanyahu wants war.
If you want peace,
email Congress now.

Robert-

The Jewish Federation of Detroit? Opposed to the Iran Deal.
The Jewish Federation of Miami? Opposed to the Iran Deal.
The Jewish Federation of Orange County? They find it “Extremely
troublesome.”

AIPAC? Don’t get me started.

When these major Jewish communal organizations oppose the Iran deal,
they’re not speaking up for their members: most Jews in the U.S. support
the Iran Deal. They’re not speaking for security experts and foreign-policy
analysts: hundreds are on record for the deal. They’re speaking for their
donors, and for the old guard of Jewish institutional gatekeepers.

In the last couple of weeks, two prominent Senators - New Jersey's Bob
Menendez and New York’s Chuck Schumer - have announced they'll oppose the
deal. That means there are now two senior Democratic Senators who’ve said
they’d rather march into another horrific, pointless war like Iraq than
stand up to Netanyahu -- and they could bring others with them. *We need to
work harder than ever to make sure we convince other Senators and
Representatives to support the deal.*

JVP is fighting back, and we need you standing with us. We’re sending our
message to Congress loud and clear -- we support Diplomacy, not War.


*Click here to visit DiplomacyNotWar.org and contact Rep. Rodney Davis,
Sen. Dick Durbin, and Sen. Mark Kirk in support of diplomacy. *

We can’t let them win -- not with so much at stake. Several Senators are
still on the fence, so we need to make sure they hear our message: As Jews
and allies, as Americans and others, we stand strong for peace.

We’ve already sent over 50,000 messages to Congress, urging Senators and
Representatives to support the Iran Deal. But that’s nowhere near enough.
AIPAC is dumping millions of dollars into slick campaigns to bully elected
officials into voting their way. We don’t have Sheldon Adelson’s big bucks,
but we do have you. And your voice matters.

*Will you add your name and contact Rep. Rodney Davis, Sen. Dick Durbin,
and Sen. Mark Kirk now?*

This deal can stand - *it has to stand.* And we’re the ones who have to
make it happen.

Onward,

Rebecca
