It is welcome that @superdrug has pulled Ahava products from its website after @afsc_org found evidence they contained ingredients from an illegal Israeli settlement built on stolen Palestinian land in the West Bank. (1/6)

At #NN26, we named the corporate forces driving U.S. foreign policy — and the communities pushing back.

Grateful to @justiceisglobal, @SunjeevBery of @Public_Citizen, @afsc_org & @CIPolicy.

More than two and a half years of genocide have devastated the people of Gaza. Still, farmers are planting again. Communities are gathering to heal. And we're providing humanitarian relief to displaced Palestinians. https://t.co/hGtuEXhk0n

The Trump administration's proposals would gut vital programs for millions of people. It would also pour an unprecedented $1.5 trillion into the military. Tell Congress to reject funding for war and invest in the communities they were elected to serve! https://t.co/3Yw9cV2Kaw

Corporations are profiting from inhumane detention centers like Delaney Hall, where detained people have bravely organized a labor and hunger strike. Communities are refusing to accept this. Here, four of our staff share what that looks like on the ground. https://t.co/XgW0OVTh92

In this interview with Brian Blackmore, AFSC's director of Quaker Engagement, we discuss AFSC's history. We talk about how we're facing the issues of today. And we explore how Friends can deepen their activism. https://t.co/TwAU4VELJa

As the Trump administration wages war abroad, it is militarizing life at home, too. These actions signal a broader shift in U.S. policy. Here’s what you need to know and how we act now to stop it. https://t.co/3UPoVsKwtq

New research from AFSC, published in The Guardian, shows the climate impact of U.S. immigration enforcement flights. ICE flights pumped into the air an estimated 370,240 tons of carbon emissions in 2025, up 88% from the year before. https://t.co/WCIjDrsuse

The Delaney Hall detention center is run by the for-profit GEO Group. But people in detention are forced to cook, clean, and maintain the facility. For over a week, hundreds of immigrants held at the facility have been on strike. https://t.co/mviQ7HUTIq

[AFSC @afsc_org]

Despite a ceasefire, Israel—with support from the U.S.—continues to bomb Gaza and severely restrict food, water, and medicine from entering. We must act now. Urge your representative to stop sending weapons and other military assistance to Israel! https://t.co/Fhl61op9EB

[AFSC @afsc_org]

The labor and hunger strike at Delaney Hall spotlight the inhuman conditions at the GEO Group run ICE prison.

AFSC's Jenny Garcia says that sometimes GEO Group will “pay” a worker with a soda. Nor are provided the proper tools to work, having to buy supplies from the commissary.

[The American Prospect @TheProspect]

Protesters began to gather outside Delaney Hall last weekend, after 300 prisoners published an open letter, saying they are “tortured physically and psychologically” by the camp’s living conditions.

Carbon emissions from deportation flights rose 88% when Trump took office. These flights alone now produce by more pollution than a small island nation.

Thanks to supporters like you, AFSC has provided food, water, and other lifesaving aid to more than 1 million displaced Palestinians. But the need keeps growing. Please make a gift to sustain our emergency relief efforts in Gaza and the West Bank. https://t.co/IIctmopnYr

In New Jersey, immigrants in detention are organizing for their freedom. Earlier this month, nearly 300 people detained at Delaney Hall signed an open letter describing torture and inhumane conditions at the facility. https://t.co/7OOmD5Bcec

FCI Dublin was shut down in 2024 after years of horrific staff sexual abuse. Now ICE is eyeing it for immigration detention. AFSC and coalition partners are pushing to keep it closed for good. Tell the government: Keep FCI Dublin closed and keep ICE out! https://t.co/Faw7RVTFvu

Communities across Latin America have long organized for peace, self-determination, and dignity. Guided by our Quaker values, AFSC has walked alongside them for nearly a century. https://t.co/S6xci5psKf

Last month, the House passed the 2026 Farm Bill. But the version passed by House Republicans makes permanent $187 billion in SNAP cuts. Join us in urging your senator: Pass a Farm Bill that reduces hunger and works for all people and the planet! https://t.co/yIjQe64c9U
