CNI is asking for your help to save America from continuing on its current self-destructive "cowboy" path by contacting your representative and senators in Washington about critically important current issues affecting our foreign policy in the Middle East.  Everything you need to be an effective advocate is set out below, and in easy to use links.

Your participation is a critical element in overcoming the stranglehold that the Israel Lobby has on our government on matters affecting US interests the Middle East. Further, many Israelis and members of the American Jewish community share our views.

We recognize your time constraints, but ask you to send separate e-mails, faxes and phone calls for each issue.

The Three Issues In Summary:

House Concurrent Resolution 321, calls for a diplomatic surge in the Middle East.  CNI SUPPORTS THIS BILL. To read the text of the bill, talking points, suggested letters, and for instructions on how to e-mail, fax, and phone your concerns to Congress, click HERE.

House Concurrent Resolution 362, calls for war-like sanctions on Iran, including severe restrictions on the travel of its officials and the prohibition of the export to Iran of needed gasoline.  CNI OPPOSES THIS BILL.  To read the text of the bill, talking points, suggested letters, and for instructions on how to e-mail, fax, and phone your concerns to Congress, click HERE.

Appropriation of nearly $3 billion in military aid to Israel, with no conditions, while it continues to steal Palestinian land and abuse millions of Palestinians. CNI OPPOSES THIS. To read the text of the appropriate section of last year's the bill (this year's is still in drafting, but will be substantially the same), talking points, suggested letters, and for instructions on how to e-mail, fax, and phone your concerns to Congress, click HERE.

Although e-mail is the easiest way to contact your representative and senators, also sending a fax, and calling their office about the matter adds significant emphasis. Regular mail no longer works for Capitol Hill because of long delays in screening. If you call, ask for the staff member who handles foreign affairs.

Be sure to identify yourself as a constituent when contacting their offices. If you have contacts with other congressional offices, call them as well.

Thank you for taking the time to press your Representatives for this needed change in policy.  Together, we can make our voices heard!
