he Life Insurance for
Travelers (LIFT) Act, HR
3639, would bar life insur-
ance companies from denying
life insurance coverage for an
individual who might travel to
Israel.
Insurance coverage can cur-
rently be denied if there is even
a chance that one might travel
to Israel. Such discriminatory
practices can be stopped
through the support of this leg-
islation. The Jewish
Community Council of
Metropolitan Detroit asks you
to contact your member of
Congress and ask them to
cosponsor the bill.
• Rep. Debbie Wasserman
Schultz, D-Fla., is sponsoring
legislation that would create an
American Jewish History
Month every January, parallel-
ing similar efforts that have
created Women's History
Month and Black History
Month.
The legislation would offi-
cially recognize the significant
contributions made by
American Jews to America's
history and culture.
• As genocide continues
unabated in the Darfur region
of Sudan, the Jewish
Community Council urges you
to contact your member of
Congress and press them to
cosponsor the Darfur Peace &
Accountability Act (S. 1462 and
HR 3127).
The legislation would place
sanctions on Sudanese govern-
ment leaders, increase support
for the African Union peace-
keeping force, and other steps
to end the genocide. As Jews,
we are all too familiar with the
horrors of genocide, and it is
incumbent upon us to fight any
genocide against any group.
