The Trump administration has been using immigration enforcement in unprecedented ways to retaliate against people for political speech and advocacy, particularly on Palestinian rights— violating our Constitutional rights. Take Action: Call on your Members of Congress/Senators to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) We’ve witnessed such weaponization of the INA against Mahmoud Khalil, Salah…

The past few years have witnessed a horrifying escalation in the Israeli ethnic cleansing campaign in the West Bank. Countless Palestinian cities and villages have been impacted, terrorized day and night by armed extremists who attack civilians, burn homes and cars, destroy crops, and steal or murder livestock.  Tell Congress: Stop the Israeli Settler Siege…

Yesterday, the House passed H.R. 8800, the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2027, by an extraordinarily narrow vote of 216–212. This NDAA authorizes billions of dollars in weapons, military assistance, and other support that would further enable Israel’s occupation and genocide against Palestinians. It also includes a deeply alarming provision, Section 219,…

We are witnessing the continuation of an illegal, unauthorized, escalating war on Iran and the broader region that Congress never approved and that the American people do not support. Over the past month, U.S. military actions, in conjunction with Israel, have already resulted in hundreds of casualties in Iran, Lebanon, and across the region. Tens…

President Donald Trump has launched a direct, unprovoked military assault on Iran, dragging the United States into the possible start of yet another catastrophic and unconstitutional war in the Middle East. U.S. warplanes and naval forces, alongside Israel, have struck at least nine Iranian cities. Explosions are currently rocking Tehran, and an Israeli strike on…

President Donald Trump and his administration are preparing to launch an illegal war against Iran, threatening to cause regional chaos, raise prices at home, and put American lives at risk while dragging the United States into yet another unprovoked war in the Middle East. Over the weekend, the President issued a “10 to 15 day”…

We’re launching an urgent campaign to free Leqaa Kordia from ICE detention, and the timing could not be more critical. Leqaa is a Palestinian Muslim woman from Paterson, New Jersey, who has been detained by ICE for over 300 days. She was targeted because she exercised her constitutionally protected right to protest Israel’s genocide in…

Since the beginning of Israel’s genocide in Gaza in October 2023, the US has given more than $30 billion in taxpayer-funded weapons to Israel to enable its atrocities.  The US is not only complicit in Israel’s killing of at least 70,000 (conservative estimate) Palestinians in Gaza and at least 1,000 in the West Bank since…

AJP Action is proud to endorse Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib’s historic resolution, H.Res. 876, which does what our government has shamefully refused to do: formally recognize the Israeli state’s deliberate and systematic destruction of the Palestinian people in Gaza for what it is. This is not a matter of opinion or political debate. It is a…

For over nine months, Mohammed Ibrahim, a 16-year-old American citizen from Florida, has been illegally imprisoned and tortured by Israel. Now, his trial has been postponed to December 15th, a deliberate delay that will force him to spend one day shy of ten months behind bars for an accusation of throwing stones, a charge he…

While members of Congress are on break from the Capitol, Palestinians in Gaza are continuing to be starved, bombed, and displaced. In just 24 hours, three Palestinians have starved to death, and at least 56 Palestinians, including 22 people seeking aid, were killed in Israeli attacks across Gaza. Israel is still weaponizing starvation, targeting displacement…

Mohammed Ibrahim, a 16-year-old American citizen from Palm Bay, Florida, has been illegally locked in Israel’s military prison system since February 2025. Israeli occupation soldiers kidnapped him from his family’s home in al-Mazra’a ash-Sharqiya, near Ramallah, in the occupied Palestinian West Bank, three weeks after he arrived to visit relatives. Israel claims he threw stones…

Americans for Justice in Palestine Action (AJP Action) strongly condemns the Israeli government’s systematic use of mass starvation against the Palestinian population in Gaza. With deliberate and precise measures, including the blockade and militarized distribution of humanitarian aid, Israel is intentionally inflicting catastrophic suffering upon over two million Palestinians, most of whom are children, and…

President Trump recently announced that Israel has supposedly accepted the “necessary conditions” for a 60-day ceasefire in Gaza. This ceasefire must not be another mirage. Israel has already shattered previous agreements and launched renewed bombing campaigns during supposed “pauses.” Any legitimate ceasefire must be honored in full, without loopholes or backdoor military operations. If Israel…

Last week, Israel launched a massive, unprovoked assault on Iran, killing over 220 people, including civilians, scientists, and government officials. These strikes, timed to destroy U.S.-Iran nuclear negotiations, have pushed the region to the brink of full-scale war. And now, President Trump is threatening to drag the United States deeper into this reckless conflict. This…

Israel has unleashed a catastrophic assault on Iranian cities, deliberately targeting residential neighborhoods and civilian areas with U.S.-supplied weapons. Iranian health officials report at least 78 civilians killed, including children, with 329 injured, as American-made bombs are devastating apartment complexes and homes across Tehran. This is not a military operation; instead, it is an attack…

On June 1st, the Madleen (a ship organized by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition) departed from Catania, Italy, carrying unarmed civilians and life-saving humanitarian aid to Palestinians trapped in Gaza. On board are parliamentarians, journalists, lawyers, and human rights defenders, risking their lives to deliver food, medicine, and baby formula to a population deliberately starved by…

Since March 2nd, after entirely violating the ceasefire, the apartheid state of Israel has imposed a total blockade on the already besieged Gaza Strip, completely sealing it off from the outside world. No food. No fuel. No medical aid. No water. The flow of humanitarian assistance has been entirely strangled. This is not a military…
