Engage with politics at the Congressional and local level. The biggest reason Biden refuses to change his stance because Congress and a majority of his constituency still supports it.

So please continue to protest and engage your congressman and local officials. We can change this but we need action.

So like if you're a student you should engage with the University admin to let your stance known, potentially asking them to stop investing endowment money with weapons manufacturers and Israeli surveillance startups?

Zionists and warmongers sure don't want you doing that.

Write your congressman if they are one of the members that forced the weapon shipments to restart.

In this case Joe Biden did not want to restart shipments but was forced by a Congressional resolution.

Here is a Reuters article covering the resolution, here is the house press release, here is the Congressional voting record.
