Since the start of Israel’s genocide in Gaza, a wave of legislation has emerged across the United States—aimed not at addressing the humanitarian crisis, but at criminalizing protest, silencing speech, and shielding U.S. complicity from public scrutiny. This panel will examine how lawmakers, rather than responding to the moral clarity of their constituents, have instead launched a legislative assault on civil liberties, campus activism, and Palestinian advocacy. What does this disconnect reveal about American democracy? And how can movements push back against policies that prioritize foreign interests over public will?
A conversation with:
Tariq Habash, Co-Founder and Director, A New Policy
Josh Reubner, Author and Policy Director, Institute for Middle East Understanding (IMEU)
Zahra Billoo, Executive Director, CAIR San Francisco Bay Area
Moderator: Manar Waheed, Civil Rights Attorney, Strategist
