April 15 is tax day in the U.S. The average individual U.S. taxpayer contributes $25.25 towards weapons for Israel each year, adding up to a staggering total of $3.8 billion that fuels violence and repression against the Palestinian people<\/strong>. Despite President Biden\u2019s recent call<\/a> for a ceasefire, the U.S. continues<\/a> to send weapons to Israel, and Congress is currently considering sending $14.1 billion<\/a> in additional military funding to further arm the ongoing genocide in Gaza.<\/p>\n
