Between 2020-2024, the U.S. government invested over twice as much money in five weapons companies as it did in diplomacy and international assistance.

Call your members of Congress today! Tell them to vote NO on the $72 billion ICE/CBP reconciliation package!

Half of Congress is voting for the disastrous Iran war, raising gas prices by $1.50/gallon and taking $40 billion from Americans.

If 3 pro-war lawmakers change their votes, we can pass a resolution to bring this disastrous war to an end. Help us hold them accountable:

Thank you @RepRashida for reintroducing your historic resolution to recognize the ongoing Nakba against Palestinians, now entering its 78th year.

The Nakba is not just a historical event, but an ongoing horror for Palestinians—and the U.S. has been complicit for decades.

Thank you to Representatives @RepChuyGarcia, @RepAOC, @repdeliaramirez, @RepHankJohnson, @RepSummerLee, @RepPressley, @RepBonnie, @Ilhan, @RepLSimon, @RepAlGreen, @RepAndreCarson, and @BettyMcCollum04 for your leadership in joining as original cosponsors.

Call your House Rep TODAY! The House may vote on another War Powers Resolution as soon as tomorrow: Rep. Gottheimer's H.Con.Res 75. If passed, it would stop President Trump from reigniting the war. #NoWarOnIran

Sending these weapons to Israel is illegal.

The US shouldn't be delivering bombs to a nation that commits genocide, targets medics and journalists, and destroys entire villages.

At the 11th #NPTRevCon, it was inspiring to see the strong turnout welcoming the Nihon Hidankyo (Nobel Peace 24) delegation.
Their unwavering support for the #TPNW, and the solidarity at the rally reflect a growing global commitment to #NuclearBan👏

Threats of war crimes cannot become normalized. Trump’s repeated threats to destroy civilian infrastructure are not negotiation, they’re reckless escalations that endanger millions. The President must abandon this pattern immediately and pursue a serious, lawful diplomatic strategy grounded in legitimate de-escalation.

[Peace Action NYS @PeaceActionNY]

This week, War Powers Resolutions again failed to pass: in the Senate along largely partisan lines, and in the House by a razor-thin margin of 213-214 - much closer than any previous votes. We need to keep the pressure on our members of Congress. https://t.co/kjFog94vnJ

[Peace Action NYS @PeaceActionNY]

40 of the Senate’s 47 Dems voted for at least one of Sanders’s resolutions to block bombs and bulldozers to Israel. The 7 Dems who sided with Republicans in opposition included both of our NY Senators, Kirsten Gillibrand and Chuck Schumer.
