SUMMARY
Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.) has called on Vice President Kamala Harris to endorse a U.S. arms embargo on Israel before November's election. Bowman, a vocal critic of Israel's actions in the Israel-Hamas conflict, believes Harris, who has been more critical than President Biden, should support halting U.S. arms sales to Israel to protect Palestinians. Speaking at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, Bowman expressed doubt that Harris will announce this stance in her keynote speech but hopes she will adopt it to address concerns from pro-Palestinian voters. The conflict has deeply divided Democrats, with many activists urging a reevaluation of U.S. support for Israel.
