As Israel’s genocide continues to decimate Gaza, and its war of aggression in Lebanon continues unabated, it is encouraging to see elected officials stand against continued support of war crimes and crimes against humanity. This week, 19 Senators – nearly 40% of Senate Democrats – voted to support the Joint Resolutions of Disapproval blocking weapons to Israel. While it is important to hold members of Congress accountable when they make the wrong decision, it is equally as important to thank them when they make the right one.
