In this week’s Action for Peace, we focus on efforts to:
🛑 Stop funding for war with Iran
🕊️ Protect civilians across the Middle East
📣 Hold elected officials accountable for supporting war
📚 Deepen our understanding of U.S. global power

Take Action

🛑 NOT ONE MORE DIME FOR WAR WITH IRAN

Congress is being asked to fund further escalation. We must be louder than
the war hawks.
👉 Tell Congress: Reject funding for war with Iran

🕊️ PROTECT CIVILIANS IN THE MIDDLE EAST

Civilians across the region are at risk as violence escalates. The U.S. must
uphold human rights and international law.
👉 Take action with Amnesty International

📣 HOLD LEADERS ACCOUNTABLE

Five Democratic members of Congress have supported Trump’s war efforts.
Constituents must speak out and demand accountability.
👉 Denounce support for war with Iran
