Open Letter

This Open Letter from American Jews calls for the next President to commit our nation to vigorous and persistent engagement in the resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This letter is an initiative of a Host Committee of prominent American Jews and is supported by Brit Tzedek v'Shalom (Jewish Alliance for Justice and Peace, MeretzUSA and a number of other American Jewish organizations. The Open Letter will be presented, with tens of thousands of signatures, to the President after the election.

We believe that Israeli and Palestinian leaders can be brought back to the negotiating table through your committed and persistent leadership in support of a negotiated two-state solution. Meeting this challenge would be an unparalleled achievement for your presidency. We strongly urge you to take all steps necessary to renew the Israeli-Palestinian peace process and thus advance America's historic contribution to regional stability, global security, and international peace.

Friends who don't identify as American Jews, can help in a number of ways
, including signing as a friend.
