Settlers are driving Palestinians from their homes in a violent land grab. Sanctions can stop it. I'm introducing legislation—alongside Reps. Dean, Beyer, Casar, Jacobs, Escobar—that imposes sanctions against anyone looking to take Palestinian land in the West Bank or Gaza. Under the Stop the Settlements Act, anyone pursuing settlements can’t do business with the United States. In addition, thank you to all of the my colleagues who are co-sponsoring this bill: Rep.
