In our over 20 years of advocating for peace and justice at CODEPINK, we’ve never seen repression on this scale.Â
Right now, the movement for Palestinian liberation is facing smear campaigns, legislation targeting activists, surveillance, and even unlawful arrests. CODEPINKers have been unlawfully assaulted and arrested for their activism on Capitol Hill, signaling this larger state of repression.Â
CODEPINK isn’t the only organization targeted for standing against genocide in Gaza; Congress is actively working on a bill that, with abuse of power, would remove the tax-exempt status of organizations supporting Palestine. UNRWA is also a clear target of this bill, and we must continue to protect it.
Send a letter to the Senate to express your support for UNRWA and other organizations helping Palestinians!
