Next statewide demo in Maine - Jan 27

 

 

Come out to stand with concerned citizens Saturday January 27 at 1:30pm to say NO to bad funding priorities -- no more $$ for Israel!  No more $$ for Ukraine! 

We'll stand on the busy intersection of Main Street & Broadway in downtown Farmington near the university campus. We are organizing with a group at UMF, and student Crow Then created the original art for this month's poster!

As the genocide in Gaza continues, and violence spreads through the region, the Biden administration wants to rush more billions to Israel for bombing and terrorizing Palestinians. Already 20,000+ Palestinians have died, and nearly 2 million residents of Gaza have been displaced. 

Still the U.S. continues funding and arming genocide, going around Congress twice recently to do so. While many in the U.S. live paycheck to paycheck, struggling just to get by. 

Our demands:

•     Peace in Ukraine - No weapons, no money for the Ukraine War
•     Abolish NATO – End U.S. militarism & sanctions!
•     Fund people’s needs, not the war machine!
•     No war with China!
•     Protect Earth's environment from the deadly insult of war!
•     End U.S. aid to racist apartheid Israel!
•     Fight racism & bigotry not war!
•     U.S. hands off Haiti!
•     End AFRICOM
