DNC Panel Rejects Resolution Demanding U.S. Arms Embargo on Israel

Support our work: https://democracynow.org/donate/sm-de... We speak with Allison Minnerly, a 26-year-old DNC member from Florida, who introduced a resolution for the party to support an arms embargo on Israel, cut off military aid to the country and recognize Palestinian statehood. The measure was blocked by party leaders who instead backed a rival resolution by DNC Chair Ken Martin, which called for a ceasefire in Gaza, increased humanitarian aid and a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Martin ultimately withdrew his resolution amid outrage from rank-and-file members, who had overwhelmingly backed the more expansive proposal, and promised the creation of a task force to study the issue further.
