US Abraham Accords Caucus wants to support education in Morocco

The co-chairs of the Abraham Accords Caucus have introduced a resolution aimed at promoting peace and tolerance through education in several Middle Eastern countries, including Egypt, Morocco, and Saudi Arabia.

The resolution calls for reforms in school curricula to eliminate antisemitic content and hate speech while fostering inclusion and respect. «We have the responsibility to educate future generations on the values of peace and coexistence», stated Representative Brad Schneider.

The United States is encouraged to collaborate with international organizations, including the UN, to achieve these objectives. Representative Ann Wagner stressed the importance of rejecting intolerance to «deprive the Iranian regime of the hatred that fuels its violent agendas».

The Caucus seeks to strengthen the Abraham Accords, signed in 2020, by encouraging partnerships between signatory countries and expanding the agreement to nations without diplomatic relations with Israel. It has supported key legislation, including the Israel Relations Normalization Act, the DEFEND Act, and the MARITIME Act, as well as provisions of the NDAA on diplomatic and military cooperation. In the Senate, the caucus is co-chaired by James Lankford (R-OK), Jacky Rosen (D-NV), Joni Ernst (R-IA), and Cory Booker (D-NJ).

The Caucus receives support from organizations such as the Atlantic Council, the Abraham Accords Peace Institute, AIPAC, the Anti-Defamation League, the American Jewish Committee, Hadassah, the U.S.-Israel Education Association, the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, the Israel Policy Forum, CUFI Action, the Jewish Federations of North America, and B’nai B’rith International.
