The ZOA Coalition has been leading the way at the World Zionist Congress for the past 127 years.

The World Zionist Congress (WZC) is the parliament of the Jewish people. There is a US Election for the WZC every five years.

The ZOA Coalition: ZOA’s activism at the WZC began with the very first Congress in 1897, where we helped launch the effort to “establish for the Jewish people a publicly and legally assured home in” our homeland. Since then, the ZOA Coalition has initiated and achieved numerous accomplishments for the Jewish people and the Jewish State of Israel. For example:​

  • In 1919, ZOA helped to negotiate the Jewish people’s binding legal rights to the Land of Israel at the Paris Peace Conference;

  • In 2015, ZOA Coalition initiated & passed the WZC’s anti-BDS resolution – which included preventing BDS targeting Judea and Samaria;

  • In 2024, ZOA Coalition passed its numerous initiatives to help Israel's war efforts, Aliyah and combatting campus and other antisemitism.

The ZOA Coalition’s Proven Track Record &
Why Your Vote is Needed:

Once in every five years, there is an election for the 2025 World Zionist Congress (WZC) – the parliament of the Jewish people.  The upcoming election for U.S. delegates will be held from March 10, 2025 through May 4, 2025.  Your vote really matters, because the World Zionist Congress influences the funding priorities and leadership of Israel’s national institutions.  If you care about the Jewish people and Israel, we urge you to join and vote for the ZOA Coalition.
 
The ZOA Coalition slate is a remarkable, altruistic coalition of over 25 strongest pro-Israel groups, dedicated to the safety and well-being of the entire Jewish people in Israel, America, Judea-Samaria and throughout the world. 
 
The ZOA Coalition has the only proven, 127-year track record of accomplishment defending Israel and the Jewish people at the World Zionist Congress.  Our continuing record of accomplishment lets voters rest assured that the ZOA Coalition will again continue to fight hard and do everything possible to protect Israel and the Jewish people’s welfare.  Other slates merely speak about what they want to do, while we’ve actually been doing what needs to be done!
 
The ZOA Coalition continues to lead the way at the World Zionist Congress.  At recent World Zionist Congresses, virtually every single pro-Israel and pro-Jewish resolution was initiated by the ZOA Coalition.

 

  • The ZOA was the only American group at the very first World Zionist Congress in Basel, Switzerland, in 1897, where we helped to lay the foundation for the re-establishment of the Jewish state. 

  • In 1919, the ZOA, along with the World Zionist Organization and Russian Zionist Federation, were the three international Jewish groups that presented the Jewish people’s proposals at the Paris Peace Conference, which led to the creation of the mandate guaranteeing the Jewish people’s international legal right to settle and reconstitute the Jewish homeland in Israel.

  • In 2015-16, ZOA Coalition initiated and led the difficult, successful two-year battle to pass an anti-BDS resolution that encompassed stopping boycotts against Jews living in Jerusalem, and in Judea and Samaria.  Others told us that we couldn’t succeed, but we prevailed!  As a result, leftwing groups in the World Zionist Congress had to end their boycotts against fellow Jews in Judea Samaria; and worldwide efforts against BDS were strengthened.

  • In keeping with ZOA Coalition’s overarching concern for the safety of every Jew, the ZOA Coalition initiated and obtained passage of resolutions giving highest funding priority to rescuing and bringing to Israel Jews and Jewish communities who are endangered by global and local antisemitism.

  • The ZOA Coalition works hard to spread the truth about the Jewish people’s rights to the Land of Israel – including Judea-Samaria.  For instance, the ZOA Coalition initiated and obtained passage of a resolution to establish a worldwide WZO program to teach about the 1920 San Remo Resolution, one of the key international agreements that guarantees the Jewish people’s legal right to settle and re-establish the Jewish homeland.

  • In the same vein, the ZOA Coalition initiated and obtained passage of resolutions calling on Israel’s government to exercise its rightful sovereignty over the Jordan Valley, and condemning UNESCO for denying the Jewish people’s connection to Jewish sites in Jerusalem and Hebron.

  • Names and language are exceedingly important in the battles for hearts and minds. Thus, the ZOA Coalition initiated and obtained passage of the resolution requiring the use of the proper names “Judea and Samaria,” instead of the de-Judaized name “West Bank.”  We make it clear that Judea-Samaria is historic, lawful Jewish land, not “occupied Palestinian territory.”

  • ZOA Coalition has been continuing our battle against anti-Israel boycotts.  For instance, ZOA Coalition initiated and obtained passage of a resolution establishing a program to encourage buying Israeli products via a positive “Buy-cott”—an antidote to boycotts.

  • ZOA Coalition has been leading battles against antisemitism since long before October 7.  For instance when ZOA Coalition organizations ZOA (Morton Klein) and American Against Antisemitism (Dov Hikind) led a protest in front of New York’s City Hall, demanding real protection for Jews in Brooklyn and throughout the New York area who were increasingly being attacked, ZOA Coalition asked other slates to join us, and we were shocked when they declined to do so, saying, “That’s not our mission.”  We believe that it’s the mission of every slate and organization in the World Zionist Congress to combat anti-Semitism!

  • ZOA Coalition has often had to stand alone when battling for the Jewish people.  For instance, in June 2019, at the American Zionist Movement-AZM (AZM is the World Zionist Organization’s American branch) board meeting, ZOA Coalition was the only slate that voted to retain a clause in AZM’s antisemitism policy,  saying that antisemitism is “manifested in activities such as anti-Zionism.”  Every other slate present voted to remove this important clause.”

  • In 2024, ZOA Coalition initiated and obtained overwhelming passage of numerous important resolutions, including:

 

  • Calling for Diaspora university leadership and governments to protect Jewish and pro-Israel students;

  • Publicly condemning the Palestinian Authority (PA)’s “pay-to-slay” payments and terror incitement;

  • Opposing allowing the PA/ PLO/ Fatah to govern Gaza;

  • Condemning and calling for dismantling UNRWA (the UN organization that teaches Palestinian Arabs to hate and attack Jews, and whose employees participated in the October 7 atrocities);

  • Condemning the International Committee of the Red Cross for failing to visit and assist the hostages that Hamas terrorists kidnapped from Israel and took to Gaza;

  • Condemning the United Nations’ violations of its charter, anti-Israel bias and refusal to condemn Hamas’ October 7 atrocities, including sexual atrocities against women and children;

  • Promoting and strengthening Aliyah;

  • Calling for urgent Aliyah assistance to Jews facing extreme violence and the danger of extinction in India and other world communities;

  • Condemning Iran’s role in the October 7 atrocities and calling for holding Iran accountable;

  • Condemning the brutal October 7 atrocities and supporting Israel’s goals of eradicating the terrorist groups Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad; assuring that Hamas and PIJ can never attack Jews, Israelis and others again; and bringing home all remaining hostages; and

  • Thanking, supporting and sending love and prayers to the brave IDF soldiers and security forces, and their families; displaced Israelis; bereaved families; and the hostages and their families.

 

Please vote for the ZOA Coalition to help us continue all this important work.

Unfortunately, part of our work involves working to stop anti-Israel initiatives at the World Zionist Congress.  For instance, the ZOA Coalition defeated a resolution that labeled Israeli society as full of “institutional racism.”  This outrageous resolution reminded us of the horrible 1975 United Nations “Zionism is racism” resolution, which took 16 years to reverse at the UN.  Shockingly, we were only able to stop the left’s WZC “racism” resolution by one delegate vote!  That was frightening.  We need your votes to prevent the World Zionist Congress from turning into a United Nations-like demonizer of Israel.

 

We also need your votes to stop leftwing groups’ efforts to cut off funds from Jewish institutions (even including kindergartens) and from the Jewish people living in Jerusalem, and Judea and Samaria.  That’s discriminatory and a form of anti-Jewish boycott.  No Jew should be sanctioned or cut off from earning a livelihood, simply because he or she lives in any part of the historic lawful Jewish homeland – or anywhere else in the world.

 

There’s so much more that the ZOA Coalition needs to do.  We can and will do it with your help. You have an important voice in this election. We need your vote. It only costs $5 and takes a few minutes.  Please vote for the ZOA Coalition!

 

We also have room for more candidates on the ZOA Coalition slate!  Please contact liz@zoa.org if you are interested.
