This week we were in Congress with Doctors Against Genocide calling for the release of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya and all detained healthcare workers, an end to attacks on hospitals, and a ceasefire in Gaza NOW!

Rep. Ritchie Torres & anti-Palestinian groups really don't want people making the connections between the US & Israel's genocide in Gaza and the climate crisis.

Maersk delivers the US weapons Israel uses to commit genocide in Gaza.

@codepinkalert Rep McGovern explains: Disrespectful and out of touch. Congress scheduled a vote to sanction the ICC — for issuing arrest warrants against war criminals Netanyahu and Gallant — during Jimmy Carter’s funeral, the only vote of the day. While wildfires rage and gun violence surges, this is their priority? Shameful.

@codepinkalert The Biden administration just acknowledged a genocide in Sudan, but what about the genocide in Gaza—funded by the U.S.? Instead of accountability, Biden is doubling down, approving $8 BILLION in weapons for Israel. Senator Jeanne Shaheen can stop this📞 call her NOW (202)224-2841) and demand: No more weapons for genocide. Stop the $8B arms sale to Israel!

@codepinkalert Standing here in the cold and snow, we’re reminded of the unimaginable hardships faced by the people of Gaza, enduring not just harsh winters, but relentless bombings and daily struggles for survival. Our solidarity knows no weather, no season. Free Palestine.
