Dan supported and included us when we were first starting out this chapter and went on to become a friend and an ally. He will be missed.

Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un.
Indeed, we belong to Allah, and indeed, to Him we return.

We love you @oregonfoodbank!

"It is important, as taxpayers, to keep policymakers accountable and press them to refrain from enacting foreign policies that contribute to genocide, warfare, famine, and hunger. Violence and war cause hunger." https://t.co/JAsZQB5eH0

Enough. If President Biden sends even one more missile to the Israeli government after seeing the apocalyptic footage of headless Palestinian children and others burned alive using U.S. bombs in a so-called #Rafah safe zone, he will once again cross his own red line and every red line of U.S. law, international law and basic human decency.

This is it, @POTUS. No more shifting red lines, no more for calls for Benjamin Netanyahu’s government to investigate itself, and no more military, financial or diplomatic support for this genocide. All Americans are being stained with the blood of innocent Palestinians by your support for this slaughter. It must end. Now. #RafahOnFıre #Gaza

We warned electeds about the need to condemn comments like Senator Tom Cotton's:

[ComradeCamera @comradecamera]

As I was walking up to PSU in Portland, Oregon, a car turned down an alley in front of me where the crowd of protestors were standing. On the dash was a can of bear mace and the license plate holder read "we the people". This wasn't an accident.

The driver accelerated towards protestors and police before exiting with the can of mace fleeing the car and spraying people on the way out.

[CAIR-Oregon @CAIROregon]

This could've been way worse.

Sign our LA chapter's action alert calling on @USC reinstate the graduation speech of Class of 2024 valedictorian Asna Tabassum, which the school cancelled in response to dishonest attacks and harassment from anti-Muslim and anti-Palestinian bigots: https://t.co/AxJtCiIvbK

[Mai El-Sadany @maitelsadany]

Absolutely heartshattering.

May the memory of 25 year old Aaron Bushnell be a blessing. May his sacrifice be a call to action for those with the ability to do something and a haunting reminder for those who refuse to change course.

I found that Mohammed, a young boy, my cousin passed. They found him under the rubble.

[DSA San Francisco @DSA_SF]

DSA SF is proud of our member Dean Preston’s leadership on the Board of Supervisors in introducing a resolution calling for a Permanent Ceasefire in Gaza. We stand with an unprecedented gathering of over 2000 San Franciscans filling City Hall voicing their unanimous support.

[CAIR-Oregon @CAIROregon]

*WE* are the majority.

[Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib @RepRashida]

61% of Americans support a permanent ceasefire in Gaza.

76% of Democrats.

57% of Independents.

49% of Republicans.

But only… 11% of Congress has called for a ceasefire.

[CAIR-Oregon @CAIROregon]

Good evening! Have you called your Reps to demand a ceasefire this week?

[CAIR-Oregon @CAIROregon]

This is not the clear ceasefire call that you are looking for.

Keep calling till it is.

[Suzanne Bonamici @RepBonamici]

We need a new path forward; a path that will save Israeli and Palestinian lives.

[CAIR-Oregon @CAIROregon]

Thank you Senator Merkley for your leadership.

We hope to see the rest of Oregon's Congressional delegation follow in your footsteps.

[Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley]

I am calling for a ceasefire—a cessation of hostilities by both sides. To endure, the ceasefire and the following negotiations must accomplish other essential objectives, including the release of all hostages and a massive influx of humanitarian aid. https://t.co/aaUdEKhfgM

[The CCR is on bsky (@ccrjustice.org) @theCCR]

🚨NEW FILING 🚨

Late yesterday, Palestinians filed an urgent motion asking a federal court to immediately stop @POTUS , Blinken, and Austin from providing further arms, money, military support, and diplomatic support to Israel.

[CAIR-Oregon @CAIROregon]

We are working on seeking clarity from Rep. Blumenauer's staff on whether he will be joining on in support of the ceasefire resolution. Semantics matter.

[Olivia Katbi 🌹 @oliviakatbi]

Rep. Earl Blumenauer says: “I am not interested in playing semantics, call it what you want: a ceasefire or a humanitarian pause.” Kind of feel like that’s playing semantics
