In this week’s Action for Peace, we focus on efforts to:
🛑 Stop war with Iran and prevent further escalation
💣 Block weapons transfers fueling violence in Gaza
👩⚕️ Take action to free Dr. Abu Safiya
🚫 Stop the use of cluster munitions
☢️ Prevent a new nuclear arms race
Take Action
🛑 STOP WAR WITH IRAN
Congress must assert its constitutional authority and prevent another catastrophic war. Sign on to demand a War Powers Resolution to stop unauthorized military action against Iran.
👉 Tell Congress: No War with Iran
💣 PASS THE BLOCK THE BOMBS ACT
The Block the Bombs Act would prohibit the transfer of specific U.S. weapons Amnesty International has documented being used to kill and maim Palestinian families. Congress must stop these arms sales now.
👉 Urge your lawmakers to support the Block the Bombs Act
👩⚕️ TELL THE AMERICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION: FREE DR. HUSSAM ABU SAFIYA
Health Care Workers for Palestine Chicago and the U.S. Palestine Community Network are pressing the American Medical Association to act for the release of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya. Medical professionals — and all of us — must defend medical neutrality and human rights. Please share with doctors, nurses, mental health professionals, and allied health workers in your networks.
👉 Sign the letter to the AMA Board of Trustees
🚫 STOP THE PENTAGON'S CLUSTER BOMB DEAL
Reports reveal a $210 million deal between the Pentagon and an Israeli government-owned weapons firm for advanced cluster munitions — weapons widely condemned for their indiscriminate harm to civilians.
👉 Tell the Pentagon: No cluster munitions deal
☢️ PREVENT A NEW NUCLEAR ARMS RACE
On February 5, 2026, the New START treaty expired — ending the last binding limits on U.S. and Russian nuclear arsenals. Congress must demand negotiations to reduce nuclear weapons, block nuclear test explosions, and reject any expansion of the U.S. arsenal.
👉 Tell Congress: Prevent a new nuclear arms race
