We are thrilled that the House passed The Middle East Partnership for Peace Act today!!

We’re thrilled to share that the U.S. House of Representatives has just passed the Middle East Partnership for Peace Act (MEPPA), historic legislation that provides $250 million over five years for grassroots peacebuilding and economic development efforts in Israel/Palestine

For over a decade, ALLMEP has called for large-scale international funding for Israeli-Palestinian peacebuilding programs. This is because we know the transformative power of people-to-people interactions and believe them to be a prerequisite for long-term peace.

The passage of MEPPA is thanks to the determination of Congresswoman Nita Lowey and Congressman Jeff Fortenberry, who have been vocal champions of our community in Congress for many years.

Led by ALLMEP, MEPPA has gathered an unprecedented coalition of support from across the ideological spectrum– including AJC - American Jewish Committee, AIPAC, Alliance for Peacebuilding, ADL - Anti-Defamation League, Ameinu, Americans for Peace Now, Churches for Middle East Peace, Israel Action Network, Israel Policy Forum, Jewish Council for Public Affairs, Jewish Federations of North America, J Street, National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW), New Israel Fund, Partners for Progressive Israel, and T'ruah– all in support of advancing Israeli-Palestinian peacebuilding.

We look forward to MEPPA's advancement in the Senate in the coming months.
