For over *six* years now the United States has given the green light to human rights abuses and suffering in Yemen by fueling fighter jets, providing intelligence and logistical support, and approving arms sales just like this one.
Luckily, there’s a silver lining that can help us turn the tide. Rep. Ro Khanna and Senator Bernie Sanders have introduced an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that would prohibit U.S. military support for the coalition’s war. It already passed the House and when the NDAA makes it to President Biden, he’s all but guaranteed to sign it.
That means just ONE thing is between us and the beginning of the end of U.S. complicity in Yemen: the Senate. And we’ve got a tiny, but critical window, to ensure that amendment makes it into the final bill that lands on President Biden’s desk. It’ll be an uphill battle, and we need you with us.
We REFUSE to let hawks in the Senate blow up a bipartisan effort to end U.S. complicity in Yemen when we are SO close. Can you make a donation now to help ensure we have the cash on hand that we need to keep the lights on and the pressure up?
