What: Tuesday Capitol Calling Party with Advocates for Normalization with Cuba When: Tues., March 2, 5 pm PT/8 pm ET RSVP for the Zoom link!

Dear John,

Join CODEPINK CONGRESS, our new campaign to mobilize co-sponsors and votes for peace legislation! On March 2, CODEPINK CONGRESS will focus on Cuba, featuring two guests: Rep. Jim McGovern (D-MA), who is urging Biden to normalize U.S.-Cuba relations, and Jose Pertierra, a Cuban attorney and political analyst. RSVP now!

For decades, America has burdened Cuba with a cruel embargo, creating tremendous hardships for the Cuban people. This worsened during the Trump administrations, which applied even more sanctions, and so far, President Biden has done nothing to change course. How can we pressure the administration to take action via executive order? What are members of Congress doing? How can we counter the influence of the right-wing? Find out this Tuesday!

Following our guests’ presentations and Q & A, we will ask our Senators to support the U.S.-Cuba Trade Act of 2021, introduced by Senate Finance Committee Chair Ron Wyden (D-OR), to lift the embargo on Cuba. 

Summary of our last meeting on February 23: We were joined by four guests for an engaging discussion on freedom and equality for Palestine under the Biden administration. Watch here, and tell Biden to reverse Trump’s executive orders to thwart international law and criminalize criticism of Israel!

Finally, we invite you to join our CODEPINK Congress Google Group, a space for sharing events and actions. Request to be added here!

Onward toward peace and justice,
Medea, Marcy, Hanieh, Carley, and the entire CODEPINK team
