Stop violations in occupied #EastJerusalem.
Amnesty's been on the ground & witnessed Israeli forces use of excessive force against protesters and bystanders. #Israel must end use of unlawful force & forced evictions of Palestinians. Int'l community must hold Israel accountable.

We need you to join us and call on our leaders to immediately free immigrants & asylum-seekers, who are disproportionately impacted by the pandemic and systemic racial injustice, and to end family detention once and for all. ACT NOW: https://t.co/P7PO8JQe8t

Savanna’s Act has passed! This is a CRITICAL first step to addressing the crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls in this country. It now goes to the president’s desk to be signed.

We support the Black @McDonalds workers leading a strike at Chicago HQ today. We strongly urge McDonald’s to give all workers paid sick & family leave now. It’s time for McDonald’s to prove that #BlackLivesMatter in all of its restaurants.

Good. This is a small step towards justice.

Now, let's ensure #RodneyReed gets a fair chance at exoneration and abolish the death penalty.

[Cory Booker @CoryBooker]

Rodney shouldn’t even be facing this. His case shines a spotlight on the immorality of the death penalty. It’s a stain on our nation. We need to abolish it.

[Cory Booker @CoryBooker]

Thank God.
