44 Arrested as Pro-Palestinian Protesters Demand Senate Block $20 Billion Israel Arms Deal
Nov 19, 2024, 06:19 PM
On November 19, 2024, pro-Palestinian protesters gathered inside the Hart Senate Office Building in Washington, D.C., demanding that senators support Joint Resolutions of Disapproval introduced by Senator Bernie Sanders to block a proposed $20 billion weapons sale to Israel by the Biden administration. The demonstrators hung banners bearing messages such as "Time to Act" and "Fund Life Not Genocide," chanted slogans like "Stop Arming Israel," and distributed flyers from the building's balconies. Capitol Police responded in less than 40 seconds, and 44 people were arrested, as demonstrations are illegal within congressional buildings.
