Message Rabbi Arthur Waskow

We are now in the process of setting up the software to help you send a letter like this to Members of Congress. But rather than wait longer to send you this - here are the Jewish addresses we recommend and urge you to write.
You can of course add others whom you know.

Rabbi Steve Gutow, president of the Jewish Council on Public Affairs, at: sgutow@thejcpa.org

Rabbi David Saperstein, director of the Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism, at: dsaperstein@rac.org

Dr. Arnold Eisen, chancellor of the Jewish Theological Seminary, at: areisen@jtsa.edu

Jeremy Ben-Ami, executive director of J Street, at: jeremy@jstreet.org

Debra DeLee, executive director of Americans for Peace Now, at: ddapn@earthlink.net

These letters will matter to those who receive them. Please take the time -- about two minutes each - to send them. Whatever else you are doing for Memorial Day, please see this time as devoted to its deepest meaning: remembering the dead of war and striving to prevent more deaths.

With blessings of shalom, salaam - Peace!
Arthur
