Figures like @LauraLoomer and @SenTuberville may continue peddling their Islamophobic, anti-Palestinian, and anti-Arab rhetoric in an attempt to intimidate what is now a powerful and growing movement, but they will continue to fail. AJP Action strongly condemns the Islamophobic attacks made by the Senator and far-right agitator Laura Loomer against Muslim Americans who participated in our Annual Advocacy Days on Capitol Hill - including the mocking of praying and practicing Muslims. We encourage others, especially representatives and colleagues of the senator, to join our condemnation and refuse the normalization of anti-Muslim bigotry in political discourse.

🎉 A U.S. District Court Judge in Indiana today ordered the immediate release of Salah Sarsour, a Palestinian and Muslim community leader from Milwaukee and board member of American Muslims for Palestine (AMP), held for more than 80 days in immigration custody as part of the Trump Administration’s attack on free speech.

Palestinians in the occupied West Bank are facing a rapidly escalating campaign of Israeli military violence, armed settler attacks, forced displacement, land theft, and settlement expansion. We cannot allow Congress to look the other way. TAKE ACTION NOW: palestine.salsalabs.org/acti…

Congress needs more leaders who are willing to tell the truth, even when it is unpopular. Leaders who are accountable to their communities instead of wealthy donors and special interests. Leaders who understand that our movements for justice do not stop at our borders. @DarializaforNY IS that kind of leader and that's why AJP Action is proud to endorse her for Congress in New York's 13th District.

Tell your representative to vote YES on @RepRashida's Lebanon War Powers Resolution and help bring an end to U.S. participation in an unauthorized war driven by the Israeli government's reckless escalations imeupolicy.org/lebanon.
Over 3,000 innocent people have been killed in Lebanon by the Israeli military & over a million displaced. We are talking about children, elders, & loved ones. I urge my colleagues to support @RepRashida's War Powers Resolution on the floor this week & act to end this war now.

Cori Bush didn't wait for permission to do the right thing. She was one of the first members of Congress to call for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, introduced one of the earliest ceasefire resolutions, and refused to back down even when it came with political consequences. That's why AJP Action is proud to endorse Cori Bush for Congress. Let's send this fearless voice back to Congress.

If the Democratic Party wants to regain the majority and win back the presidency, it needs to get serious about confronting what actually happened in 2024 rather than endlessly avoiding accountability. Thank you to Ro Khanna for at least being willing to say part of it out loud. Millions of people, especially young voters, Arab voters, Muslim voters, and progressives, were screaming for over a year that this issue mattered politically, morally, and emotionally. Pretending it had no impact doesn’t make it disappear. Democrats cannot continue tiptoeing around this or treating outrage over mass atrocities as some fringe concern to suppress rather than a legitimate moral and political breaking point for voters.

Khanna on DNC autopsy: Did you notice it doesn’t mention Gaza? This party needs to start telling hard truths. One of those truths is that Israel committed a genocide—that we shouldn’t give a single dollar to commit that genocide. That was an issue in 2024, it will be an issue in 2026 and 2028. So we need another report on the impact of Gaza on 2024.

Thank you, Senator @ChrisVanHollen, for continuing to stand on the right side of history and refusing to stay silent while Palestinians endure occupation, apartheid, siege, starvation, and genocide. At a moment when confronting the U.S. role in enabling these atrocities remains deeply uncomfortable, and when leaders in both parties continue providing political cover, weapons, and impunity, your willingness to speak plainly and demand accountability matters.
Democrats have provided reflexive & unconditional support to Netanyahu & Israeli governments, even as they undermined the values we claimed to stand for.   It's time to end taxpayer-funded support & condition arms sales to end the occupation & salvage a 2-state solution. nytimes.com/2026/05/26/opini…

For our third Palestine Congressional Scorecard, we tracked how every Member of Congress aligned on a comprehensive set of Palestine-related bills, resolutions, votes, and public letters. Your members of Congress work for you. So how are they scoring? How are they voting? And do their actions actually reflect the will of their constituents? Find out here: ajpaction.org/scorecard2026/

Over 3,000 killed. This mass murder must end. The U.S. is not a bystander in the Israeli military's brutal invasion of Lebanon—it is an active participant. I will force a vote in Congress to immediately end all U.S. participation in this illegal and immoral war on Lebanon.

Ever since Thomas Massie lost yesterday, AIPAC has been boasting that “Israeli politics” is just good politics. But if support for Israel’s actions were truly politically secure, they would not have needed to help turn a Kentucky Republican primary into one of the most expensive House primaries in modern history. Polling increasingly shows a majority of Americans oppose providing military and economic aid to Israel, while sympathy for Palestinians continues to rise nationwide. This only further exposes the desperation behind the effort to contain that shift.
A majority of Americans oppose providing economic and military aid to Israel, according to a poll conducted by The New York Times and Siena Research Institute. The survey found that 57 per cent of Americans oppose giving assistance to Israel, while 37 per cent support it. It also showed that 37 per cent of respondents sympathise more with Palestinians, compared with 35 per cent who said they sympathise more with Israelis. The poll was conducted between 11th and 15th May and included more than 1,500 American adults. The margin of error was about 2.8 percentage points. A previous poll by Gallup found that 41 per cent of Americans said they sympathised more with Palestinians, compared with 36 per cent who sympathised more with Israelis, marking the first such shift since the annual survey began in 2001. According to the agency, observers said the rapid change in American public opinion was linked to the growing influence of pro-Palestinian grassroots movements in the United States, which they said had helped break long-standing political and media taboos surrounding debate over Israeli policies in the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip. middleeastmonitor.com/202605…

🎉 WE HAVE A WINNER: @chrisrabb just won the democratic primary for PA-03 and we couldn’t be more excited. The win is always sweeter when you unequivocally stand for justice. Rep. Rabb’s campaign was built on relentless courage and rooted in community and tonight’s result showed the power of that vision.

In one of the most expensive House primaries in history, nearly $35 million was poured into unseating a sitting Republican congressman from Kentucky because he occasionally broke from Trump and, apparently, was not “pro-Israel” enough for the political machine surrounding him. To make it worse, the sitting Defense Secretary joined the effort. Trump and the Zionist lobby were so threatened by even the smallest ounce of independence that they had to use the weight of the administration itself to destroy him.
Rep. Thomas Massie has been unseated by AIPAC’s Ed Gallrein in what is now the most expensive House primary in U.S. history. #KY04

Pro-Israel groups feel so threatened by a Republican from Kentucky questioning unconditional support for Israel that they are spending historic amounts of money to unseat him.

Today, we recognize the Nakba never ended. The genocide in Gaza and horrific erasure of communities across Palestine & Lebanon must end now. In Congress, I will join @RashidaTlaib @IlhanMN on a resolution to recognize the Nakba and reaffirm Palestinian refugees' right of return.

78 years ago, the Nakba began, and it never stopped. We are proud to endorse @RepRashida's Nakba resolution. It makes clear that the Nakba isn't a memory but continues to be a daily reality for Palestinians. Millions of refugees are denied their right to return. Palestinians are facing systematic removal, home demolitions, land theft, forced expulsion, genocide, settler colonial expansion, and a legal system that enshrines inequality. If your member of Congress hasn't co-sponsored yet, urge them to become one today: imeupolicyproject.org/nakba-…
The Nakba never ended. The Israeli apartheid regime is still committing genocide in Gaza and violently erasing entire communities across Palestine and Lebanon. I'm leading a resolution to recognize the 78th anniversary of Nakba and reaffirm Palestinian refugees' right of return.
