Sacramento, December 25 (RHC)-- In Northern California, more than 500 residents have joined a class-action lawsuit in an effort to block future U.S. military aid to Israel over Gaza. 

The lawsuit targets Democratic Congressmembers Jared Huffman and Mike Thompson.  The lawsuit was filed by the group Taxpayers Against Genocide. 
Seth Donnelly, the group’s lead organizer, told reporters: “We want to go to where the source is.  It controls our tax dollars.  And that’s Congress.  They have power of the purse.  And our two reps in the House voted — and that’s Mike Thompson for some of the counties, and the other one is Jared Huffman for the other counties.  They both voted on April 20th to send $26 billion more in military aid to Israel.  And by that point, the evidence of genocide was overwhelming.”
