💣 NO WAR PROFITEERING IN GAZA
A military contractor is demanding a 300% profit margin and exclusive control over Gaza’s aid and reconstruction through Trump’s “Board of Peace”. This is exploitation – not humanitarian aid.
👉 Tell the State Department: No Profiting from genocide!
🛢️ DROP CHEVRON NOW
Chevron profits from war, genocide, and climate destruction, then launders its image by sponsoring beloved community institutions. Demand that events, cultural spaces, and nonprofits cut ties with Big Oil and refuse blood‑stained money.
👉 Tell institutions to Drop Chevron now!
☢️ SAY NO TO A NEW NUCLEAR ARMS RACE
The last U.S.–Russia nuclear treaty expired February 5, ending all limits on their arsenals. Tell Congress to support extending The New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty and reject new nuclear testing.

🧊 END DETENTION & DEPORTATION CRUELTY
Weeks after an ICE agent fatally shot Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, the Trump administration is asking Congress for more funding for ICE’s parent agency, the Department of Homeland Security. Urge your representatives to vote NO on new DHS/ICE funding.
👉 Take Action
💥 HOLD CORPORATIONS ACCOUNTABLE FOR ICE VIOLENCE
Big companies like Amazon, AT&T, and Microsoft help ICE carry out raids and deportations. Tell them to stop enabling immigration violence and cut ties with ICE.
