J Street - The political home for pro-Israel, pro-peace Americans

Robert,

Last week, we asked you to join J Street members in a petition to Representative Nikki Budzinski, telling her why it's so important to support the international agreement to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.

Now, AIPAC has raised the stakes: they're committing at least $20 million to lobby Congress against the deal.

We have truth on our side, but with huge resources like that against us, we're going to need your help to prevail.

That's why it's absolutely critical that you help us be heard. You've already signed the petition. Now make a call: let Rep. Budzinski know that you stand with the majority of American Jews and support this diplomatic agreement.

The overwhelming majority of nuclear experts -- including a growing number in Israel's security establishment -- agrees that this deal is better than no deal. It's the best way to ensure a safer and more secure Israel. Without an agreement, Iran could move ahead with its nuclear program without any monitoring, inspections or restraints; their "breakout" time to a nuclear weapon could be as short as 3 months.

But with this deal, we'll have the toughest-ever monitoring and inspections program and preserve the international sanctions regime if Iran tries to cheat.

Prime Minister Netanyahu made it clear he would oppose this deal long before it was signed. Now AIPAC is right there with him, pulling many of the other traditional organizations in our community along behind them.

And they're spending millions to make sure that their opposition will be heard in Washington.

That's why we need to speak out too, and as loudly as possible. Make sure Congress hears our voices, and not just those of the well-funded opposition.

Call Rep. Budzinski now. Let her know where you stand.

We're counting on your support.

Jeremy
