On January 26, 2024, the federal court will hear a lawsuit filed by Palestinian plaintiffs charging President Biden, Secretary of State Blinken, and Secretary of Defense Austin with complicity in Israel’s genocide. The lawsuit seeks an emergency federal court order to halt U.S. support for these actions. The court holds the authority to compel the U.S. to cease its support, making this an urgent and pivotal case for the millions affected by genocide.
