Dear Friend,

Even with everything else going on, we won't get distracted. The war criminal Netanyahu arrives today in Washington, D.C. With the genocide ongoing, and after tens of thousands of Palestinian children killed, he is expected to get a warm welcome from both Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, before addressing Congress on Wednesday. 

We can't let this stand. Rather than getting standing ovations, he should be in handcuffs. A massive coalition of organizations will be mobilizing to surround Congress, and to arrest him for his war crimes. We need your help.

I know you've received fund appeals before, but we're still in a big hole. I’m writing today to ask that you consider making an urgently needed donation to help us cover costs so we can have the largest possible mobilization. We've been at this for over 9 months and we won't stop now. 

Almost all the buses are filled, thanks to the incredible commitment of organizers and people of conscience across the country.  To keep the tickets affordable, we take a significant loss for every bus, but we know we can make this happen because of the generosity and sacrifice of people like you. 

To remind you of our costs: 

• Buses from Atlanta are $8,000. From Western Mass. and Maine cost even more.
• We've already spent $29,000 on buses from New York City.
• The sound and stage alone cost over $30,000.

If you already donated, I want to thank you for your contribution. While we know the people of the world stand against the genocide, the only way to sustain these mass mobilizations financially is by everyone pitching in what they can. Please make a donation here. 

We will not abandon the Palestinian people. We will be not allow this charade in Congress to go unanswered. Thank you again for all your hard work to get out the message of this movement. See you Wednesday in the streets!

In struggle,

Brian Becker
