Yes, J-Street has a Haggadah insert as well

Here's part of J-Street's Haggadah insert for this year:



Here's part of what it says (not pictured):
Though the spiritual connection of the Jewish people to the historical land of Israel, the future of the State of Israel depends on our ability to separate from a part of it. Freedom for the State of Israel will come only by breaking from a piece of itself.

As we break this matzoh tonight we do so with the recognition that sometimes we must encounter brokenness if we are to become free. We break this matzoh in the hope that it breaks us free from the
bondage of violence, from the bondage of hatred, from the bondage of occupation.

So I decided to make a more accurate J-Street insert (click to enlarge):
