Urge your elected officials to pressure the U.S. State Department

Five Iranian Jews, including two U.S. citizens, are being unjustly detained by the Iranian regime simply for being part of the Jewish community or allegedly expressing support for Israel, reportedly because they are Jewish or had recently called relatives in Israel. Fill out the form on this page to urge U.S. officials to hold Iran’s regime accountable.

These arrests are part of a broader crackdown in which 35 Iranian Jews were reportedly taken into custody and accused of having “contacts with Israel”—often nothing more than calling family members or interacting with social media content. While most have been released, five remain imprisoned and their futures uncertain.

These detainees include:

🔹 A New York resident who has lived in the U.S. for over 30 years.

🔹 Another, from Los Angeles, was released on bail but still faces legal threats.

🔹 Three others are being held for expressing views critical of the regime online.

Join the campaign and urge your elected officials to pressure the U.S. State Department to prioritize the release of the detained U.S. citizens and raise the plight of the others through diplomatic channels!
