Action Alerts: Help Us Make Meaningful Change

Oppose continued U.S. military aid to Israel

As the war continues in Gaza and the violence escalates in the West Bank, it has never been more important for people of faith to advocate for a ceasefire, for increased humanitarian assistance to Gaza, and for the withholding of arms to Israel. Urge the Biden administration to withhold military aid to Israel, increase humanitarian assistance to Gaza, and increase efforts for a ceasefire.

Urge the U.S. Senate to reject initiatives curbing free speech and advocacy for Palestinian rights

Israel’s war on Gaza must cease immediately, sufficient humanitarian aid must be provided, and core issues must be resolved based on international law to ensure a just and durable peace. We must protect the right to speak out, dissent, and advocate with non-violence for justice and peace.
