Can you help us continue our work for peace?

Dear John,



In the past six months we have personally confronted President Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi (multiple times), Secretary of Defense  Lloyd Austin, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, AIPAC lobbyists, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, the House Foreign Relations Committee, Matt Gaetz, Brian Mast, and more – all to shame them for their complicity in the genocide in Gaza. 



Since the genocide in Gaza began, we have carried out over 50 disruptions of “business as usual.” From our co-director Danaka screaming at Biden to call for a ceasefire in Illinois, to the constant disruption of the hearings in Washington on defunding UNRWA, we want to keep doing this. (Scroll down to watch videos of our disruptions.) We want to keep bringing your demands to the most powerful people in the belly of the beast.

On top of our disruptions, our co-founder Medea Benjamin is in the halls of Congress every single day, leading our peace activists to demand that Members of Congress call for a ceasefire and vote NO on any new aid to Israel. Pressure works! In 6 months, 77 members of Congress joined the call for a ceasefire and 16 members of Congress have taken our pledge to vote No on any new funding to Israel.

CODEPINK isn’t just in DC, we are also supporting efforts to support Palestine all over the world. This past weekend we partnered with Mothers Against Genocide in Ireland to disrupt St. Patrick’s Day. We are working with our local chapters to pass ceasefire resolutions, like we did in Chicago and most recently, Moorhead, Minnesota. We helped disrupt the Oscars. We marched on the Golden Gate Bridge. We are shutting down air force bases and parades. We will continue to be everywhere that Gaza is not being spoken about – the moment demands that of us. 



We have a lot to prepare for on the horizon too. Both the Democratic and Republican National Conventions are coming up this summer. We will be there. And as election season approaches, you will get a lot of emails from politicians asking for money to get them elected – the people in power who have sat back and given the stamp of approval for genocide. 



Can you help support our local CODEPINK chapters? 



<[link removed]>I'll fund a poster pack ($20)! <[link removed]>



<[link removed]> I’ll fund t-shirts ($50)! <[link removed]>



<[link removed]>I’ll fund an action ($100)! <[link removed]>



<[link removed]>I’ll sponsor a chapter ($250)! <[link removed]>



<[link removed]>I’ll donate another amount  <[link removed]>



And we promise, we’ve put the money where our mouth is, too. Not only do your donations to CODEPINK support our grassroots efforts, but because of you, we were able to send $10,000 to UNRWA and even more to other aid groups in Gaza. Thank you for everything that you make possible. We couldn’t do this without you. 



❤️ With love,

Medea, Ann, Danaka, Farida, Grace, Isra, Jasmine, Jodie, Marcy, Mark, Melissa, Michelle, Nancy, Nour, Nuvpreet, Ryan, Teri, and Tim
