Call Ben Cardin NOW against new Iran sanctions!

January 23, 2015Action Alerts

Earlier today, a Just Foreign Policy activist delivered a petition to Sen. Ben Cardin’s office in Baltimore calling on him to support diplomacy with Iran by opposing any new sanctions legislation, including the Kirk-Menendez bill.

A petition calling for Sen. Cardin to oppose any effort to punish the Palestinians for joining the International Criminal Court was also delivered.

Even if you have already called before, support the petition delivery by calling Ben Cardin’s Baltimore office NOW at (410) 962-4436 and saying

I support the petition being delivered to your office today calling on Sen. Cardin to support diplomacy with Iran by opposing any new sanctions legislation, including the Kirk-Menendez bill. As President Obama said in his State of the Union address, new sanctions legislation “will all but guarantee that diplomacy fails.”

I also support the petition calling on Sen. Cardin to oppose any effort to punish the Palestinians for using international law to protect their human rights by joining the International Criminal Court. That means he should not support any effort to cut aid to the Palestinians, including Sen. Rand Paul’s bill (S.34) and the proposed Gillibrand-Rubio letter.

When you’re done, please report your call here:

Thanks for all you do to protect diplomacy,
