Urgent: Tell Senators Padilla and Schiff to Vote NO to National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) which would:
· increase the war budget by $250 billion dollars, allowing war on Iran to continue
· merge the U.S. and Israeli militaries to co-produce deadly weapons, AI, and surveillance technology (Section 1217). Some are calling it the “Deadly Merger.”
If the NDAA passes with Section 1217, it will make it extremely difficult to cut ties with Israel and much harder to track and regulate U.S. complicity in the Israeli military’s crimes. Call both Senators to ask them to block the NDAA, and to speak up publicly now to reject the “Deadly Merger section.
Opposing the NDAA is one of the most critical actions Senators can take right now to defund the war on Iran, cut ties with Israel, and stop the genocide in Palestine.

Sample message:
I am a constituent and am calling to urge Senator _____ to publicly oppose
the National Defense Authorization Act and to demand: 1) No increase in the war budget and
