"At the conclusion of our historic sit-in at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, leaders of the Uncompromising National Movement asked Vice President Harris to respond by September 15 to requests to meet with Palestinian American families in Michigan who lost loved ones to bombs in Gaza and to discuss our demands to suspend weapons to the Israeli government and secure a permanent ceasefire," the group said Thursday, noting that the Harris campaign has not addressed these requests.
"Vice President Harris's unwillingness to change an unconditional gun policy or even make a clear campaign statement in support of upholding existing US and international human rights laws has made it impossible for us to support her," the group added. .
The Uncompromising National Movement said it will continue to advocate for life-saving policy change to end the bombing of Gaza and end US support for the Israeli military's war crimes.
While the group will not endorse Vice President Harris "at this time," it still "opposes a presidency of Donald Trump, whose agenda includes plans to accelerate the killings in Gaza while intensifying the organization's anti-war crackdown," the group reported. Xinhua news agency. .
Additionally, the group said it "does not recommend third-party voting in presidential elections, especially since third-party votes in key swing states could inadvertently help deliver a Trump presidency, given our country's failed electoral college system."
The group, whose main goal was to pressure the US government to achieve a ceasefire in Gaza amid the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas, began in the US state of Michigan with large Arab-American and Muslim populations during the this year's Democratic presidential primaries.
The group said on its website that it garnered more than 700,000 unpledged votes nationwide, with 30 unpledged delegates brought to the Democratic National Convention (DNC) and more than 300 ceasefire delegates at the DNC, which was held last month.
